Absolute Batman 5

Scott Snyder and artist Nick Dragotta continue their acclaimed reimagining of the Dark Knight in the Absolute Universe. Once bound to Bruce Wayne by friendship and love, Selina Kyle now faces him and Agent Pennyworth as the masked Catwoman, while Bruce fights on as a brutal, working-class Batman. The conflict only widens: Batman clashes with Bane, the Joker's savage enforcer, and with Waylon, a former friend twisted into a monster. Harley Quinn and the Red Hood collective wait in the wings, each pulling Gotham deeper into chaos. This volume blends crime, horror and superhero action in a darker, unfamiliar Gotham.
