About the series
In 1993, DC and Dark Horse teamed up for a one-shot crossover that pitched the Dark Knight against Matt Wagner's own creation, the masked assassin Grendel. Written and illustrated entirely by Wagner, Batman / Grendel: Devil's Masque pits two shadowy, driven vigilantes against each other in a clash of philosophies. This single issue remains a landmark meeting of two distinct corners of 1990s independent and mainstream comics, showcasing Wagner's singular vision for both characters.
