- AN EPIC, STAR-STUDDED, OVERSIZE CELEBRATION 1,100 ISSUES IN THE MAKING! Written by Tom Taylor, Greg Rucka, Mariko Tamaki and Dan Watters Art by Mikel Janin, Alvaro Martinex Bueno, Amancay Nahuelpan and Bill Sienkiewicz In March 1937, a comic book was published that changed the world as we know it. Now, 1,099 issues later, some of comics' top talents have gathered to celebrate the comic that birthed a legend! Tom Taylor and Mikel Janin join forces once again to tell a heartfelt and action-packed story of Batman rescuing a young boy's best friend. Greg Rucka and Alvaro Martinez Bueno team up for a tale that asks the question: was Gotham better off before Batman? Mariko Tamaki reunites with Detective Comics collaborator Amancay Nahuelpan for a yarn that explores Bruce Wayne's world outside of the cowl and how his double life as Batman intersects with his alter ego's actions. Dan Watters and legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz bring us a story that illustrates just how similar Batman's motivations are to the criminals he has sworn to fight and how he fights against his own darkness.
