DC's flagship title re-launches for the first time ever, featuring Batman adventures from the acclaimed Tony Daniel (BATMAN R.I.P)! Bruce Wayne is back under the cape and cowl, ready to protect Gotham City from its deadly array of villains--from the Joker to Mr. Freeze to brand new masked murderers!

After having his face sliced off, The Joker makes his horrifying return to Gotham City in this epic from issues #13-17 that shook Batman to his core! But even for a man who's committed a lifetime of murder, he's more dangerous than ever before. How can Batman protect his city and those he's closest to?

In this new original graphic novel from superstar writer/designer Chip Kidd and artist Dave Taylor, Gotham City is undergoing one of the most expansive construction booms in its history. The most prestigious architects from across the globe have buildings in various phases of completion all over town. As chairman of the Gotham Landmarks Commission, Bruce Wayne has been a key part of this boom, which signals a golden age of architectural ingenuity for the city. And then, the explosions begin. All manner of design-related malfunctions-faulty crane calculations, sturdy materials suddenly collapsing, software glitches, walkways giving way and much more-cause casualties across the city. This bizarre string of seemingly random, unconnected catastrophes threaten to bring the whole construction industry down. Fingers are pointed as Batman must somehow solve the problem and find whoever is behind it all.

Eisner Award-nominated writer Greg Rucka (GOTHAM CENTRAL, Wolverine) teams up with legendary artist Klaus Janson (BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS) for a miniseries that pits Batman against one of his greatest foes: Ra's al Ghul! After centuries, time has caught up with al Ghul, and only his greatest enemy can save him! Can these longtime enemies become allies?

Once a town controlled by organized crime, Gotham City suddenly finds itself being run by lawless freaks, such as Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and the Joker. Witnessing his city's dark evolution, the Dark Knight completes his transformation into the city's greatest defender. He faces multiple threats, including the seeming return of a serial killer called Holiday. Batman's previous investigation of Holiday's killings revealed that more than one person was responsible for the murders. So the question remains: who is committing Holiday's crimes this time? And how many will die before Batman learns the truth?

BATMAN: DARK KNIGHT DYNASTY presents a story that uses the Batman mythos as a foundation but includes dynamic interpretations and plot twists to create a truly unique experience. This century-spanning epic introduces the reader to three different Dark Knights from the 14 century to the year 2500. The original Batman is a holy knight named Joshua Wainwright. During the Crusades, Wainwright takes on the guise of a bat and becomes the sworn enemy of the villainous immortal Vandal Savage. As the tale continues after Wainwright's demise, his descendants take the mantle of the bat and dedicate their lives to battling the undying Savage.
