The Story
It has been one year since the mysterious Batman first appeared to protect the people of Gotham. In that time, he has waged war on the common criminals and members of organized crime who have plagued his city. But the massacre of some of the city's most notorious gangsters reveals that a far more dangerous threat is emerging, one for which Bruce Wayne is woefully unprepared—genetically engineered, horribly mutated men who have developed a taste for human flesh. Eisner Award-winning creator Matt Wagner (Grendel, Mage, Sandman Mystery Theatre) brings his unique vision to tell the story of one of Batman's earliest and most terrifying adventures and how it forever changed the destiny of the Dark Knight.
