BATMAN: GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM #1
Story, art, and cover by RAFAEL GRAMPA
“When you chase your own shadow…it leads you into the abyss.”
In a Gotham City where every day feels darker and more irredeemable than the last, Batman makes a definitive choice—to kill off the Bruce Wayne identity for good and embrace the cowl full-time. But though he knows the streets of Gotham, Batman will soon come to find that he hardly knows himself. A serial killer is on the loose, and while the murder victims seem random at first, every clue draws Batman closer to the terrifying truth—that they are all connected, not just to each other…but to him…
When an all-new rogues gallery of utterly depraved villains begins to emerge from the depths of the city, Batman will have to contend with the very nature of evil—including that which lurks inside in the darkest corners of his own heart—to face what’s coming for his city.
Batman: Gargoyle of Gotham brings Rafael Grampá’s twisted vision of both the Dark Knight and the city of Gotham to life in a DC writing debut that will reach its icy black tendrils into the deepest and darkest corners of human nature and leave you gasping for breath—and for more! -DC
Holy comic book Batman, look at this AMAZING noir edition! What a gorgeous cover. There are some of us over here at Mr. Howard's that can't wait to get our hands on this one.
BATMAN: GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM NOIR EDITION #1 See Rafael Grampá’s stunning artwork in vivid, uncolored black-and-white, fully lettered, in a limited “Batman Noir” edition with a unique cover! - DC
Speaking of amazing things, not a comic book exactly, (but in light of the upcoming celebration day) we'd be remiss if we didn't mention the now cancelled, but never forgotten, Pennyworth series. If you haven't seen it - find it on a TV near you immediately. You are welcome. And Happy Batman Day to all!
