New Releases by Jim Aparo

Written by legendary scribes including Len Wein, Bob Haney and Denny O’Neil, the stories included in this volume highlight Jim Aparo as one of the greatest Batman artists of his generation, as well as a profound influence on the generation of creators that followed. As one of the premier Batman artists for over two decades, Jim Aparo has been responsible for some of the Dark Knight’s most memorable and defining moments. This volume showcases some of the earliest exploits of the Caped Crusader that were drawn by the legendary artist! LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT: VOL. 3 collects Batman’s infamous exploits from DETECTIVE COMICS #444-446, BATMAN FAMILY #17, THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #152, 154-155, 157-162, 168-170, 173-178, 180-182 and THE UNTOLD LEGEND OF THE BATMAN #1-3, along with more classic Jim Aparo covers from DETECTIVE COMICS and THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD.

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.

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.
