Acid Batman - The Curse Of The White Knight

THE SWORD OF AZRAEL IS RELEASED! The urban jungle, Gotham City, is consumed by the war between Batman and the Joker, a war in which the difference between hero and criminal has become excruciatingly blurred. Now, with the persona of the benevolent Jack Napier buried deep beneath a domineering Clown Prince of Crime, the Joker prepares to take this war to the next level, and the army has a new recruit. Wielding a flaming sword and carrying the weight of hundreds of years of history on his shoulders, Azrael is the darkest knight Gotham has ever seen. One by one, Batman's enemies will fall from his blade, and little by little, this new crusader will rebuild Gotham City into his own version of heaven on Earth. Only Batman and his estranged allies can stop him but the lack of trust between them runs deep. And when the Joker and Azrael uncover the hidden history of the Wayne family, all faith in the Dark Knight may be shaken forever. Acclaimed writer and designer Sean Murphy continues his exciting and intriguing reinvention of the Batman mythos in BATMAN: THE CURSE OF THE WHITE KNIGHT, a stunning sequel to the groundbreaking graphic novel Batman: White Knight. This volume collects all eight issues of the DC Black Label series, as well as the one shot Batman: White Knight Presents Von Freeze, written by Sean Murphy and drawn by legendary comics artist Klaus Janson.
