Batman, Incorporated

Grant Morrison and Chris Burnham’s Batman, Incorporated (2012–present, DC) expands the Dark Knight’s mission worldwide, as Bruce Wayne publicly franchises his brand of justice by assembling an international network of Batmen. This series is the capstone to Morrison’s epic, globe-trotting Batman saga, weaving a globe-spanning conspiracy that tests the very idea of the Bat-family. A bold, action-packed fusion of espionage and superheroics, it matters as a definitive, forward-looking statement on legacy and the power of a symbol.
