Everyone knows the story of why Bruce Wayne became Batman, the sad tale
of that one dark night in Crime Alley that left him an orphan on a
mission to declare war against criminals.
We also know that, as a young
man, he went on a lengthy and trial-filled journey to become the
crimefighter he ultimately wanted to be, a journey that he took him
around the world, where he met new friends, new foes, and challenges
he'd never dreamed of.
But despite knowing that's a key part of Batman's
background, we've never seen that journey get its own in-depth
examination. Batman: The Knight is here to change.
Written by CHIP ZDARSKY and complimented by artist CARMINE DI GIANDOMENICO,
the new DC Comics miniseries will explore Batman's origins after the
death of his parents and the angry declaration of his life's mission, at
a time when he's just setting out to learn all the skills he'll need to
be Gotham's Caped Crusader.
