Batman faces his greatest enemy as Chip Zdarsky’s run reaches its decisive and dramatic conclusion, presented in the second of two omnibus hardcovers.
As Gotham descends into chaos, Batman faces challenges that strike at the core of his mission, his relationships, and his sense of self. With the Bat-Family divided and trust fractured, the battle for Gotham becomes as personal as it is physical.
At the center of it all lies a terrifying realization: The greatest threat to Batman may be Batman himself. As his backup persona, Zur-En-Arrh, rises to the surface, the conflict becomes an internal war that pushes Bruce Wayne to his limits.
In this omnibus collected edition, writer Chip Zdarsky is joined by superstar artists including Jorge Jiménez and Giuseppe Camuncoli for "The Gotham War," "The Joker Year One," "Mindbomb," and other thrilling story arcs.
Collects Batman #137-157, Catwoman #57-58, Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War: Battle Lines #1, Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War: Prelude #1, Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War: Red Hood #1-2, Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War: Scorched Earth #1, and stories from Absolute Power: Ground Zero #1, Batman Black & White #4, Detective Comics #1027, and Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder #1.
Chip Zdarsky is an Eisner Award-nominated writer renowned for his acclaimed runs on Daredevil, Public Domain, and Spider-Man: Life Story. His Batman tenure redefined the Dark Knight for modern audiences while honoring classic mythology. Known for balancing psychological complexity with blockbuster action, Zdarsky has become one of comics' most sought-after writers across Marvel and DC.
