"Batman created by Bob Kane with Bill Finger"

In these tales from DETECTIVE COMICS #988-993, Batman is hot on the trail of a murder suspect, but first heÕll have to get past Two-Face. Even though Harvey Dent seems to be asserting control, how long before he becomes a sociopathic criminal once again? What is DentÕs connection to the victim, and what does it all have to do with Kobra?! Whatever it is, itÕs big enough to reunite Jim Gordon and former district attorney Harvey Dent, and that meeting alone is worth the cover price.

Kicking off an arc guest-written by James Robinson (writer of the Batman classics ÒBladesÓ and ÒFace the FaceÓ) with art by rising star Stephen Segovia! It looks like the kind of murder case too ordinary to draw the attention of Batman...but once the WorldÕs Greatest Detective gets involved, the identity of the victim completely unravelsÑand leads to a conspiracy among some of the Dark KnightÕs strangest foes!

There's only one life Batman would be willing to risk saving Jim Corrigan and the Spectre: his own!
