"I AM GOTHAM" chapter one
No one has ever stopped the Caped Crusader. Not The Joker. Not Two-Face. Not even the entire Justice League. But how does Batman confront a new hero who wants to save the city from the Dark Knight?
CAN'T MISS: Superstar artist David Finch returns to Batman alongside writer Tom King for this five-part storyline.

Friends. Teammates. Titans. Donna Troy, Arsenal, Garth, Lilith, and Nightwing were all that and more until a mysterious force erased their memories, forcing them to forget what they could accomplish together. Reunited with their memories returned, the Titans must destroy the interdimensional demon that broke them apart and threatens reality itself.
THEY SAID IT: "Grayson and Donna were a few of the characters I first worked on at DC, so it feels like a homecoming for me," explains penciller Brett Booth. "I'm beyond happy!"
WARNING: Do NOT read this issue until after you read DC UNIVERSE: REBIRTH #1!

It's Klaus versus Krampus, and the whole world hangs in the balance!

Before the Dark Knight returned...
The Joker. Poison Ivy. Selina Kyle. And the last Robin.

The streets of New York have been plagued by a pattern of crimes too weird and bizarre for the average detective.

And the only man capable of fighting against the unspeakable terrors isn't a man at all. Detective Sebastian Greene is one of them-it takes a monster to catch a monster.
