Grant Morrison présente Batman #4
Ce quatrième tome de la collection Urban Comics rassemble les épisodes de la série Batman & Robin écrits par Grant Morrison, poursuivant son run complexe sur le Chevalier Noir. On y suit les aventures de Dick Grayson endossant le rôle de Batman aux côtés de Damian Wayne en Robin, affrontant de nouvelles menaces tout en explorant la dynamique inédite de ce duo.
In this 2013 urban adventure, Batman and Robin prepare for patrol when they discover the Bat-Cave disturbed—only to be greeted by Bat-Mite, a dimension-hopping fan with a flair for chaos. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Sheldon Moldoff, with inks by Charles Paris, this issue captures the classic spirit of the Dark Knight’s rogues’ gallery, as Bat-Mite’s antics test the duo’s patience and ingenuity. The cover by David Finch and Scott Williams perfectly captures the whimsical yet uneasy energy of the encounter.
In "null," Batman gathers international crimefighters in Gotham to test their skills against a mysterious criminal mastermind who dares them to stop his crimes. As the heroes race to uncover clues, it becomes clear that their methods may surpass even Batman’s—leaving the Dark Knight questioning his own legacy.
In "null," Grant Morrison presents a striking, introspective take on heroism within the Batman anthology, where the enigmatic John Mayhew gathers a cadre of legendary figures to form the Club of Heroes. Tasked with choosing a chairman, the group agrees the one who performs the most good deeds will lead—but as the line between heroism and identity blurs, the true nature of their mission begins to unravel.
In "null," Grant Morrison presents a delightfully surreal twist on Gotham’s darkest hero, as Batman and Robin return from a routine prep session to find the Bat-Cave in disarray—and Bat-Mite, the dimension-hopping fanboy from another world, already causing chaos. With his over-the-top enthusiasm and chaotic energy, Bat-Mite insists on joining their crusade, turning their mission into a spectacle of exaggerated heroics. But when even Batman’s patience is tested, he finds a way to channel the imp’s wild spirit into something that helps them both—just in time for Bat-Mite to realize it’s time to go home.
In "null," Batman is mysteriously transported to the planet Zur-En-Arrh, where he encounters a version of himself from another world facing an alien invasion. With the unexpected gift of superpowers, he must join forces with his doppelgänger to confront a threat that could shatter their realities.
In "null," Grant Morrison presents a chilling twist on Batman’s origin as Bruce Wayne uncovers an old Batman-type costume in his attic, sparking a new investigation into his parents' murder. The discovery leads him to question everything he thought he knew—revealing that Joey Chill was only hired to kill them, and the true killer may still be out there, untouched by justice.
In "null," Batman confronts a harrowing simulation designed to test how he'd cope with isolation in deep space—only to witness Robin's death within it. The psychological toll is overwhelming, blurring the line between reality and the test, and driving him to consider abandoning his crusade.
