📘 Series Summary
Launched at the dawn of DC Rebirth, the third volume of the flagship Batman title redefined the Dark Knight for a decade. The series is anchored by three major creative eras: Tom King's sprawling 85-issue psychological romance between Batman and Catwoman; James Tynion IV's blockbuster "Joker War" and "Fear State" sagas; and Chip Zdarsky's high-octane "Failsafe" and "Absolute Power" arcs. This volume is notable for stripping Batman down to his core, exploring his failures, his desire for happiness, and his resilience against world-ending threats.
From the tragic "City of Bane" to the multiversal chaos of "The Bat-Man of Gotham," this series introduced a new generation of characters including Punchline, Ghost-Maker, The Designer, and Clownhunter. It also featured landmark events like the almost-wedding of Bruce and Selina, the death of Alfred Pennyworth, and the emergence of the Zur-En-Arrh personality. Featuring breathtaking art from David Finch, Mikel Janín, Jorge Jiménez, and Jorge Fornés, this volume stands as a monumental chapter in the history of Gotham's protector.
