Batman – Detective Comics – Faces of Death
 | Comics
Gotham's most dangerous criminal The Joker is on the loose and Batman is currently after him for 114 confirmed kills. In an undisclosed location, a man wearing mask made out of human skin approaches Joker on someone's order but soon got his throat ripped by the clown before being stabbed to death. Upon tracking him down, Batman breaks-into that hideout only to set him running and leaving a bag of explosives to go off. Only a split-second away from going after Joker, Batman hears an eleven years old girl named Olivia Carr asking for help. The G.C.P.D. arrives too but instead of helping the girl, they get busy with Bats. It was not until Commissioner Gordon ordered his men to stop shooting at him as they were following Mayor Hady's order.

The Joker successfully lured a team of Gotham City Police officers into a trap and killing them all in a rigged explosion. He eventually got chased by Batman and have exchanged few blows before getting captured. He is left at Arkham Asylum in care of Dr. Jeremiah Arkham and shortly after everyone leaves him alone, The Dollmaker enters the room. It appears that getting caught by Batman was an elaborated plan by the psycho to get in here and he asked Dollmaker to carve up the skin off his face. Leaving his face skin pinned to the wall of Arkham, Joker leaves. Soon, a reporter named Charlotte Rivers persuades Bruce Wayne and they both end up in dating. Things would escalate when the psychotic serial-killer Dollmaker clears his obsession to have Batman as an extremely valuable collectible item.

Batman – Detective Comics – Faces of Death (Hardcover)

In wake of The New 52, the second monthly ongoing volume of Detective Comics takes things straight high with Batman and The Joker. The plot was both written and drawn by Tony Daniel (Deathstroke – New 52, Justice League – New 52), who brings the same psychological thriller vibe into Detective Comics again. Events taken in this storyline, such as a confrontation of Batman with G.C.P.D. forces and Joker, carries some resemblance to Frank Miller's iconic The Dark Knight Returns book. Also, the opening splash-page of the first issue is an homage to another panel from All-Star Batman and Robin by artist Jim Lee (Batman – Hush, Superman – For Tomorrow). Collecting issues #01-07 from The New 52's Detective Comics monthly series, this storyline serves as a prologue for 2013's DC Comics crossover event "Death of the Family".

Batman eventually defeated him in his gigantic form after quite a hard battle and The Joker is left in a dying, sickly state on Arkham.

In the heat of the situation, the administrator of Arkham Asylum, Quincy Sharp takes advantage of the situation and becomes the mayor of Gotham City to control the power that runs the city. Meanwhile, two super powered thug siblings named "T&T" who were working as henchmen for Two-Face, secretly succumbed to the Titan formula and starts a murderous spree across town, which prompts a martial law in Gotham by Mayor Sharp. Batman is well aware of Sharp's intention and realizes that someone from the behind is orchestrating the entire plot to manipulate the entire series of events.

All-Star Batman and Robin, the Boy Wonder (Softcover)

All-Star Batman and Robin, the Boy Wonder (Hardcover)

"All Star Batman and Robin, the Boy Wonder" is one of the most talked-about Batman stories ever, written by modern master Frank Miller (Batman - Year One, The Dark Knight Returns) and artist extraordinaire Jim Lee (Batman – Hush, Superman – For Tomorrow) and Scott Williams. It was the first time to tell a new version of Dick Grayson's origin in a high-voltage series that unfolds with guest appearances by Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Black Canary and more which DC Comics has done pretty finely!

Grievance of Knights

However, these 10 issues took quite an awful lot of time to release yet the whole plot is nowhere near complete. Frank Miller also attempted to create variant covers for the issues of the series which was able to create some extra hype to the fans.

Batman – Hush | Comics

Batman goes up against a mysterious foe who send him up against Catwoman, Joker, Killer Croc, Poison Ivy and even Superman!

To save a kidnapped boy from the clutches of Killer Croc after tracking him down Batman goes and have a brief fight with his captor but before S.W.A.T. team arrives, the ransom money is surprisingly stolen by Catwoman, who remained unnoticed to everyone else. The Dark Knight however, sees her trail and starts to give a chase over the rooftops.

In mid air, someone cut his Bat-Line from the shadows and caused him to fall on ground from a great height. He receives a severe damage to skull and couldn't move at all while landing on the vile streets of Crime Alley. When he was falling to his uncertain fate, she was completely unaware of it and ran off with the money to hand it over to Poison Ivy.

Unable to even move a muscle, Batman is surrounded by street thugs and Oracle sends out a distress signal to fellow vigilantes for his rescue. Fortunately Huntress was nearly and she responds to the emergency signal by arriving to rescue The Bat as soon as she could. She fought her hardest to a standstill until transportation was sent to their location.

She puts his body inside the Batmobile and it takes off before she leaves too in her motorcycle, as someone watches over and makes remark about the importance of friends in life. In Batcave, Alfred Pennyworth patches him up and a near-unconscious Bruce tells him thorough Morse code to call his childhood friend Thomas Elliot.

Tommy Elliot is a renowned neurosurgeon of the world and a close personal friend of Bruce Wayne, who performs a brain surgery on him to save his life. When slightly recovered, he starts investigating about the fall and confronted Killer Croc again in Arkham Asylum. Croc didn't respond very well and was seemingly more agitated than his usual self.

He then unexpectedly proceeds to break out of his cell to make an escape upon tossing out everyone on his way. Batman immediately goes after him but the tire of Batmobile was shot during this chase, which threw him off the track for a brief time. Croc has gotten his hands onto Catwoman and he was about to off her for stealing his money.

She was saved at the last moment by the Caped Crusader and Selina reveals that she stole the money for Ivy in a mind-controlled state. These two head over to Metropolis for further investigation only to encounter Poison Ivy with a mind-controlled Superman at her side. It took almost everything for The Dark Knight just to restrain Man of Steel.

The duo gets back to Gotham City to gather at an Opera as Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle without knowing each other's secret identity, along with Tommy Elliot and Leslie Thompkins. The stage is taken by Harley Quinn and her masked henchmen, so Batman had to intervene but she goes all out guns blazing and Catwoman ended up getting shot.

Changing back to his cowl, Batman chases after Harley hears a gunshot outside, which led him to The Joker looming over the lifeless body of his pal Tommy Elliot. In a violent fit of rage, he viciously beats the clown down with an inch of his life and both Selina and Commissioner Jim Gordon finally managed to stop him from crossing the line.

Following the funeral for Tommy, Nightwing came to see Bruce and they go out to stop the Riddler after an armored car robbery. At this point, Bruce and Selina both knew about their dual life as they have chosen to trust each other with their secret.

Trails from Lazarus Pit lead him to seek attention of Ra's al Ghul by kidnapping his daughter Talia al Ghul following a showdown between the two while Lady Shiva savagely beats down Catwoman to a pulp. A run-in with Scarecrow causes Huntress to turn against Selina and Harvey Dent makes a surprising return, who is no longer Two-Face.

Batman is suspicious about a resourceful new mysterious enemy working from shadows who is responsible for his allies and enemies to acting weird and out of their characters. This is someone who knows a lot about him and he cannot even trust his allies now. Plus, a person believed long-dead from past makes a surprise return to haunt him.
