New Releases by Jim Aparo

Assailli par de multiples visions, le nouveau Batman, Jean-Paul Valley a trahi son serment et la cause de son prédécesseur en tuant le criminel Abattoir. Bruce Wayne, remis de ses blessures, retourne à Gotham City. Mais il lui faudra encore subir un entraînement intensif pour pouvoir redevenir le seul et unique Chevalier Noir. La conclusion fracassante de la saga inédite en France, Knightfall, voit le retour de Bruce Wayne sous la cape et le masque du protecteur de Gotham. Sous la houlette du responsable éditorial Dennis O'Neil (Green Lantern Green Arrow), Chuck Dixon (Robin, Birds Of Prey), Alan Grant (Lobo) et Doug Moench (Batman - La Brume Pourpre), confrontent les deux versions du héros, aux méthodes diamétralement opposées.

Jim Aparo was one of the premier Batman artists of the 1970s, working primarily on the Batman team-up title THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD. Now, DC collects Aparo's run on the series in hardcover for the first time from the beginning. Aparo portrayed Batman as a detective who operated in shadow, yet captured the action and thrills of the Caped Crusader. These stories feature appearances by numerous DC heroes (and villains) including Plastic Man, Metamorpho, Sgt. Rock, The Flash, Aquaman, Mister Miracle, Green Arrow, Wonder Woman, Deadman, Green Lantern, the Metal Men, Hawkman, The Phantom Stranger, Supergirl, the Teen Titans-and Jim Aparo himself! Collects THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #123-136 and 138-151.

Volume Three: Batman comes back to reclaim his place as protector of Gotham, but first he needs to take care of Jean Paul Valley who has gone insane since taking over.
