Batman - Dark Knight : The Last Crusade

In 2017, Urban Comics published Batman: Dark Knight – The Last Crusade, a single-issue prestige story that serves as a prequel to Frank Miller and Brian Azzarello's Dark Knight III: The Master Race. Written by Miller and Azzarello with art by John Romita Jr., this one-shot explores a pivotal, brutal chapter in the twilight of Batman's career, set in the grim, iconic world of Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. It matters as a connective bridge between the original classic and its later sequels, offering a dense, standalone glimpse into the aging hero's final battle.
