Collection: All Star Batman – DC Comics – (2016–2017) – Volume 1 – Limited Series – #1–14

📘 Series Summary

Fresh off his industry-defining run on the main Batman title, superstar writer Scott Snyder launched All Star Batman as part of the DC Rebirth initiative. This 14-issue series was designed as a high-octane "road trip" through the Dark Knight's mythology, pairing Snyder with a rotating cast of legendary artists to reimagine Batman's greatest villains. Unlike the city-bound stories of Gotham, this series takes Batman across the country, often placing him in vulnerable, daylight environments.

The series is divided into three major arcs: "My Own Worst Enemy" (with John Romita Jr.), which sees Batman handcuffed to Two-Face on a cross-country gauntlet; "Ends of the Earth" (with Jock, Tula Lotay, and Giuseppe Camuncoli), a worldwide hunt for the masterminds behind a global blight; and "The First Ally" (with Rafael Albuquerque), a deep dive into the secret history of Alfred Pennyworth and a new nemesis known as Briar. Each issue features a backup story centered on Duke Thomas (The Signal), further expanding the lore of the Bat-Family.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

• Written by Scott Snyder, continuing his legacy as one of the most successful Batman writers of the 21st century.
• Features a powerhouse artistic roster including John Romita Jr., Jock, Rafael Albuquerque, Tula Lotay, and Francesco Francavilla.
• Reimagines Two-Face, Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, and the Mad Hatter in visceral, modern ways.
• Explores the hidden "black ops" past of Alfred Pennyworth in the final arc, "The First Ally."
• Known for its massive Variant Cover program, featuring exclusive artwork from Jae Lee, Michael Turner, and Declan Shalvey.
• Includes the Director's Cut of issue #1, showcasing John Romita Jr.'s raw pencils.
