About the series
In this four-issue DC miniseries from the late 1990s, writer Larry Hama and artists Anthony Williams and Flint Henry take Batman into a chilling confrontation with a new, high-tech menace who weaponizes toys—but this Toyman is far deadlier than the classic foe. The story leans into a darker, more grounded take on the concept, blending Batman's detective work with eerie, mechanical threats. It's a compact, overlooked thriller that showcases Hama's knack for military-tinged action and Williams' detailed, shadowy art.
