RELEASED OUT NOW!

Publisher DC Comics

Writer James Tynion IV

Artist Tony Daniel, Guillem March, Carlo Pagulyan, Jorge Jimenez, Rafael Albuquerque

ISSUES 1-6

take-over of the reins returning to more traditional superhero fare after Tom King’s ambitious run was brought to a premature close – but the results are no less thrilling or epic, judging by its exhilarating opening eight-part arc. Involving not only the Joker, Riddler, Penguin and Catwoman but also Deathstroke, Cheshire and a new cadre of assassins along with Harley Quinn, the concept of complexity is shrewdly at its heart, as Tynion introduces The Designer, a Moriarty-style criminal mastermind who boasts the ability to conceive the perfect crime, embroiling the Bat in an elaborate and deadly shell game.
