#1 Batman and the Monster Men marks Matt Wagner’s return to the world of Batman. This new mini-series written and illustrated by Wagner takes place during Batman’s early days fighting crime. He is still hopeful of actually winning his war and vanquishing crime in Gotham. And he has good reason to feel that way; these are the days before the costumed criminals began to appear in Gotham. He was still fighting to bring down The Roman and had just defeated the Red Hood. But the rules begin to change as Hugo Strange conducts bizarre experiments to unlock human potential, experiments that will undoubtedly move him into conflict with Batman. The first issue moves nicely and sets up all the characters. If you’re a fan of Batman, you’ll love this one.

Follow the early career of the World’s Greatest Detective as he uncovers the new and uncanny complexities of crime.

#3 The Dark Knight’s first confrontation with super-villains is getting deadlier by the minute! A mad scientist has created a race of giant monster men to do his bidding. As they rampage through Gotham, a young Dark Knight is forced to learn that there are evils in the city far stranger than mobsters and street criminals. Batman comes face-to-face with the twisted Professor Hugo Strange as their conflict reaches a boiling point!
