    YEAR OF THE BAT Part Ten: Zero Year - One Dark Night

    THE BEST BOOK CLUB IN THE MULTIVERSE!


    The Book Club Bois continue ZERO MONTH by diving into a collection of anthology stories in the latest chapter of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s BATMAN!


    Gotham City has gone dark. The debut of The Riddler has resulted in a citywide blackout right as it gets hit by the STORM OF THE CENTURY! As Bruce suits up to help save his city, our story shifts its gaze to those on the ground (and in the air!) - those who were not yet heroes but answered the call to help others in need. Clark Kent. James and Barbara Gordon. Jason Todd. Luke Fox. John Stewart. Oliver Queen. Dick Grayson. One day, they’ll be heroes… if they can survive ONE DARK NIGHT!


    Covers Detective Comics (2011) #25, Action Comics (2011) #25, Batgirl (2011) #25, Batwing (2011) #25, Nightwing (2011) #25, Green Arrow (2011) #25, Green Lantern Corps (2011) #25 and Red Hood and the Outlaws (2011) #25 by John Layman, Greg Pak, Marguerite Bennett, Jimmy Palmiotti, Kyle Higgins, Jeff Lemire, Robert Venditti, James Tynion IV, Jason Fabok, Aaron Kuder, Fernando Pasarin, Eduardo Pansica, Will Conrad, Cliff Richards, Andrea Sorrentino, Allan Jefferson and Jeremy Haun

This self-published essay centers on the character of Miles Morales and explores not only his history within the panels, but also his impact on the Spider-Man legend, as well as how these themes are addressed in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Malcolm provided the afterword for this new edition of the book, and it is SENSATIONAL! Check it out when it drops December 16th!
