Knight and Squire

Set in a world where the streets of Britain are patrolled by its own unique brand of costumed heroes, this six-issue DC miniseries from 2010–2011 follows the Knight and his young sidekick, the Squire, as they navigate the distinctly British superhero scene. Written by Paul Cornell with art by Jimmy Broxton and Staz Johnson, the series expands the lore of the Batman family’s international allies while offering a witty, self-contained look at the pub-crawling, tradition-bound vigilantes of the UK. It’s a charming, offbeat corner of the DCU that fans of Cornell’s work and British superheroics shouldn’t miss.
