📘 Series Summary

Two of history's greatest vigilantes collide in Batman/The Shadow, a historic 6-issue cross-publisher collaboration between DC Comics and Dynamite Entertainment. Co-written by superstar Scott Snyder and Steve Orlando, the story begins when a murder in Gotham City points to Lamont Cranston as the culprit—a man who has been dead for over fifty years. This mystery propels the Dark Knight on a global journey to uncover the truth about the immortal Shadow.

Featuring the dark, kinetic, and atmospheric art of Riley Rossmo, this modern noir pushes both heroes to their limits. The stakes escalate when the Joker joins forces with a brand-new, terrifying villain known as The Stag. As the conflict moves toward the mystical city of Shamba-La, Batman must decide if he will embrace the brutal destiny the Shadow has envisioned for him. It is a haunting exploration of justice, legacy, and the darkness that dwells within both legends.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

  • The first major crossover between Batman and The Shadow in the modern era, co-published by DC and Dynamite.
  • Features a script by Scott Snyder, the architect of some of the most successful Batman stories of the decade.
  • Introduces The Stag, a formidable and eerie new antagonist designed to challenge the tactics of both heroes.
  • Boasts a staggering array of variant covers from industry legends like Tim Sale, Cliff Chiang, Steve Epting, and Francesco Mattina.
  • Showcases Riley Rossmo’s unique, expressive art style, which perfectly captures the supernatural and noir elements of the story.
  • Includes a pulse-pounding Joker team-up (#3–4) that threatens the sanity and hearts of the world's greatest detectives.
