Absolute Batman Vol. 1: The Zoo (HC)

The Batman you thought you knew is gone—what remains walks the edge of control.

A mysterious force is reshaping Gotham, and the Dark Knight finds himself caught in a psychological warzone where nothing is as it seems. A new metahuman presence, strange experiments, and a ghost from Bruce Wayne’s past all converge in a conspiracy that digs into the very foundation of identity and power.

This isn’t about solving a case—it’s about surviving it. Old alliances are tested, hidden motives surface, and Gotham becomes the stage for a terrifying new order. Every page drags Batman deeper into a twisted game of predator and prey, and the cost of losing isn’t just death—it’s transformation.

Eisner-nominated writer Dan Watters (Arkham City: The Order of the World) and visionary artist Sebastián Fiumara (Lucifer) deliver a cerebral, character-driven thriller that challenges the limits of the Batman mythos. Collects Absolute Batman #1–6. Part of DC’s All In initiative redefining its most iconic heroes.
