Batman: False Faces

In 2008, DC released Batman: False Faces, a single-issue prestige comic written by Brian K. Vaughan with art by Scott McDaniel. The story explores the psychology of identity and deception in Gotham City, focusing on how Batman's rogues gallery—and the hero himself—wrestle with the masks they wear. This standalone tale is a tight, character-driven thriller from a celebrated writer, offering a sharp, self-contained look at the Dark Knight's world.
