Batman: The Long Halloween #[nn]

Dec 2011 · DC · 24.99 USD; 27.99 CAD
“Chapter One: Crime”

In "Chapter One: Crime," the mystery of the Holiday killer deepens as Alberto Falcone’s arrest seems to bring closure—only for Harvey Dent to unleash Arkham’s most dangerous inmates, leading to Carmine Falcone’s brutal death. Batman swiftly restores order, but with the Falcone family in ruins and the city still trembling, one question lingers: was Alberto truly the Holiday killer, or is the real monster still at large? Written by Jeph Loeb and illustrated with chilling precision by Tim Sale, this issue sets a dark, atmospheric tone with haunting visuals from Sale’s cover art.
