Batman By John Ridley
Batman by John Ridley brings a new dimension to Gotham, pairing classic Batman adventures with a modern, cinematic sensibility. This deluxe collection gathers stories from Batman Black & White #1, Batman: The Joker War Zone #1, Future State: The Next Batman #1–4, plus a previously unpublished Ridley/Nguyen collaboration. It's built for adult fans and older teens who crave character-driven, suspenseful crime drama and a fresh take on the Dark Knight. The tone is moody, adventurous, and thoughtfully plotted, inviting readers to see Gotham through Ridley's sharp, cinematic lens.

The inclusion of a previously unpublished Ridley/Nguyen story adds a rare, eagerly anticipated moment, while Dustin Nguyen's lush artwork complements Ridley's brisk, character-driven narration.
