Overview
A new Robin—Tim Drake—rises as Batman faces one of the darkest chapters of his life in this essential DC Finest collection.
Batman is at his lowest point.
In the aftermath of devastating loss, Bruce Wayne becomes increasingly reckless in his war on crime, pushing away allies and abandoning the balance that once made him Gotham City’s greatest hero.
But one young detective sees what no one else can: Batman needs a Robin.
