Batman: Brotherhood of the Bat

In 1995, DC Comics released a single-issue prestige special that explores a grim, alternate future for the Batman mythos. Written by Doug Moench with art by Jim Aparo, Batman: Brotherhood of the Bat presents a world where the Dark Knight's legacy has been twisted into a totalitarian regime. This standalone story is a notable entry in the era's trend of dystopian Elseworlds tales, offering a chilling look at what happens when the symbol of the bat becomes the law.
