Batman Noel

MEHR ALS EINE WEIHNACHTSGESCHICHTE Inspiriert von Charles Dickens' unsterblichem literarischen Klassiker Eine Weihnachtsgeschichte schickt Ausnahmekünstler Lee Bermejo (JOKER, LEX LUTHER: MANN AUS STAHL) den Dunklen Ritter in dieser spektakulären Graphic Novel nicht nur in den Kampf gegen Joker, sondern auch auf Konfrontationskurs mit den unruhigen Geistern der Vergangenheit, der Gegenwart und der Zukunft. So entstand in realistischen Bildern eine außergewöhnliche Bestandsaufnahme und stimmungsvolle Studie des seit über 70 Jahren währenden Batman-Mythos, mit Robin, Superman, Catwoman und vielen andern!

#1 New York Times Bestseller Inspired by Charles Dickens' immortal classic A Christmas Carol, BATMAN: NOEL features different interpretations of the Dark Knight, along with his enemies and allies, in different eras. Along the way, Batman must come to terms with his past, present and future as he battles villains from the campy 1960s to dark and brooding menaces of today, while exploring what it means to be the hero that he is. Members of Batman's supporting cast enact roles analogous to those from A Christmas Carol, with Robin, Catwoman, Superman, The Joker and more playing roles that will be familiar to anyone who knows Dickens' original holiday tale.

DC BLACK LABEL, the highly anticipated new imprint from DC Comics, starts here! The Joker is dead. There is no doubt about that. But whether Batman finally snapped his scrawny neck or some other sinister force in Gotham City did the deed is still a mystery. Problem is, Batman can’t remember…and the more he digs into this labyrinthian case, the more his mind starts to doubt everything he’s uncovering. So who better to set him straight than…John Constantine? Problem with that is as much as John loves a good mystery, he loves messing with people’s heads even more. So with John’s “help,” the pair will delve into the sordid underbelly of Gotham as they race toward the mind-blowing truth of who murdered The Joker. BATMAN: DAMNED is a bimonthly super-natural horror story told by two of comics’ greatest modern creators-a visceral thrill-ride that proudly puts the “black” in BLACK LABEL.

A miser learns the true meaning of Christmas when three ghostly visitors review his past and foretell his future.

But the residents of Crimson Lake are watching the pair's every move. And for Ted, a man already at breaking point, this town is offering no place to hide . . .
