Eisner Award winner Tom King reunites with Mikel Janin as he continues his bestselling Batman run. Batman returns to Gotham just in time for the epic showdown with Bane!
THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS
Bane has taken everything from the Batman. His home. His city. His family. Even his closest advisor and oldest friend, Alfred Pennyworth, who lies dead at Bane's hands. Now, the Dark Knight has returned to Gotham City to take back the town. But even if the Dark Knight can liberate Gotham from the man who once broke him, an even darker figure waits in the wings.
In another reality, Bruce's father, Thomas Wayne, became the Batman--one more violent and vicious than his son could ever dream. Now in our world, he has aligned himself with Bane to remake the city. And he believes in his twisted heart that Gotham isn't big enough for two Batmen...meaning Bruce Wayne and all his allies must be destroyed. The stage is set for the ultimate confrontation between three of the most fearsome figures in the entire DC Universe. When the dust settles, which dark knight will rise?
Discover the answer in the astonishing conclusion to writer Tom King's hugely acclaimed Batman saga in Batman Vol. 13: City of Bane Part 2, featuring top artists Mikel Janín, Jorge Fornés, and John Romita Jr.! Collects Batman #80-85 and Batman Annual #4.
