(W) Paul Dini (A) Eduardo Risso (CA) Eduardo Risso

The Caped Crusader has been the all-abiding icon of justice and authority for generations. But in this surprising origi NAl graphic novel, we see Batman in a new light-as the savior who helps a discouraged man recover from a brutal attack that left him u NAble to face the world. In the 1990s, Eisner Award-winning writer Paul Dini had a flourishing career writing the hugely popular and . Walking home one evening, he was jumped and viciously beaten within an inch of his life. His recovery process was arduous, hampered by the imagined antics of the villains he was writing for television including The Joker, Harley Quinn and the Penguin. But despite how bleak his circumstances were, or perhaps because of it, Dini also always imagined the Batman at his side during his darkest moments. DARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY is the harrowing and eloquent autobiographical tale of Dini's courageous struggle to overcome a truly desperate situation. It is a Batman story like none other and one that will truly reso NAte with fans. Art by the incredibly talented Eduardo Risso (100 BULLETS, DARK KNIGHT III: THE MASTER RACE).
