The bestselling series gets the premium hardcover treatment!

Without the wealth, without the cave, he’s still the Absolute Dark Knight!

Meet Batman as you’ve never seen him before, reimagined with a modern origin story at the hands of superstar creative team Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta!

Bruce Wayne comes from nothing. He’s not the scion of a wealthy empire in Gotham City—he’s the son of a public school teacher who experienced the unimaginable horror of random gun violence as a child, changing the trajectory of his life forever. With no limitless resources, no billions to fund him, no mansion, and no butler to care for him, Bruce has shaped himself into an entirely different breed of Batman, one that is equal parts brain and brawn, who exists exclusively in the grittiest and most underserved parts of Gotham with no high-society mask to fall back on. 

In this premium deluxe edition hardcover, you’ll witness the birth of an all-new Batman as he pursues his singular mission of vengeance on the dangerous streets of Gotham City. He’ll encounter new, deadly challenges as he uncovers the shocking secrets of Gotham’s past and who really runs the world.
