Amid the fires, rioting, looting and gang warfare, one question rings out from the souls of Gotham's desperate citizens: Where is Batman? With guest-stars galore, the destruction of a sacred Gotham City institution and an endingthat will have everyone talking, this event written and drawn by Tony Daniel (The Tenth) and other top creators features the battle to take on the Mantle of the Bat. Who has earned the right? Who thinks they deserve it? Robin? Nightwing? Jason Todd? Two-Face? Catwoman? Batgirl? Who will ultimately win the BATTLE FOR THE COWL?

Mehso-so

Not quite my vibe. The first two-thirds feel like a hint at long term tension coming to a head, satisfying fandom need to see the Robins (potential Bats) and their disparate styles 'have it out', but I wanted more in-depth debate and demonstration of leadership/skill than action sequences. The last unnecessary third of this volume felt lackluster. The overdramatic intros...and the art is just not my fave. A subjective problem, admittedly. 💁🏼‍♂️

What happens to Gotham when the dark knight falls? Who will carry on the legacy Bruce Wayne created? Who will be the hero Gotham needs?!?
The art in this baby is such a treat! I was very happy to see so many obscure villains I hadn't heard of, granted I'm admitting I'm new to the batman graphic novel universe, as well as plenty of familiar favorites. It would have been better if some "other" favorites showed up but hay I can't be greedy #batman
