DAN JURGENS AND MIKE PERKINS REUNITE TO FOLLOW THEIR BREAKOUT SERIES: THE BAT-MAN: FIRST KNIGHT! The year is 1940. Most of the Western world is embroiled in a war against a fascist regime whose march across Europe shows no sign of defeat. With the specter of global war looming, it's a time of fear and paranoia for those living in Gotham. It's only been a few months since the city was rescued from undead monsters by the masked vigilante known as The Bat-Man, but a vicious killer has been on a murder spree that's taking the city to its breaking point. Bodies are turning up in theatrically gruesome ways...all staged with the killer's calling card: a hangman's noose. While The Bat-Man endeavors to solve the spate of murders, a young reporter from the Daily Star named Lois Lane arrives in Gotham. Meant to cover a movie premiere, it doesn't take long for Lane to find herself caught in the grips of a new villain in Gotham. One whose mastery of fear will plunge the city into chaos!

Reviews
Bat-Man First Knight is, in my opinion, one of the best Batman stories of the last decade (if not of all time), with Jurgens and Perkins knocking it out of the park again with an astounding start to their follow-up series! 1939, America is on the brink of war and gripped with fear. Meanwhile in Gotham, villains conspire from the shadows to grow the fear caused by the possible outbreak of a war in Europe. But they are not the only creatures stalking the streets at night, the Bat-Man is still out there to protect the innocent! Fresh off of his first big case, Bruce Wayne (aka the Bat-Man) is thrown in the deep end when a series of gruesome murders rock the psyches of every Gothamite. A fantastically crafted story for fans new and old; if you want to catch up, the first series is collected hardcover. Or you can just jump right into this series, you’ll catch on fast.
