Some scars fade. Crime Alley never does. Denny O'Neil (Batman), and Len Wein (Swamp Thing) headline a run that fuses crime noir, gothic horror, and raw emotion.

Night after night, Gotham throws its worst at Batman: killers who freeze their victims, arsonists who turn the city into a burning maze, mystics and vampires haunting alleys, assassins sworn to Ra's al Ghul, and a clown prince who treats murder as performance art.

This era also marks the pivotal debut of Lucius Fox, a figure who will become essential to both Bruce Wayne's personal and corporate life. Threaded through it all is Bruce Wayne's ritual return to the place where it began--Crime Alley--and the allies and enemies who remind him why he can never stop.

Guided by Denny O'Neil (Green Lantern/Green Arrow) and Len Wein (Detective Comics), and including Wanted: Santa Claus--Dead or Alive!--a crucial early Batman story by award-winning writer-artist Frank Miller (Batman: Year One)--this era pairs hard-hitting scripts with striking art from Don Newton (Detective Comics), Irv Novick (The Flash), Ross Andru (Action Comics), and more.

Collects Batman #307-324; Detective Comics #482-490; DC Special Series #21; and The Brave and the Bold #159.
