Paul Dini

Dark Night A True Batman Story

€21,00
The Caped Crusader has been the all-abiding icon of justice and authorityfor generations. But in this surprising original graphic novel, we see Batman ina new light -- as the savior who helps a discouraged man recover from a brutalattack that left him unable to face the world. In the 1990s, legendary writerPaul Dini had a flourishing career writing the hugely popular Batman: TheAnimated Series and Tiny Toon Adventures.

Walking home one evening, he wasjumped and viciously beaten within an inch of his life. His recovery process wasarduous, hampered by the imagined antics of the villains he was writing fortelevision including the Joker, Harley Quinn and the Penguin. But despite howbleak his circumstances were, or perhaps because of it, Dini also always imagined the Batman at his side, chivvying him along during his darkest moments.

DARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY is the harrowing and eloquent autobiographicaltale of Dini's courageous struggle to overcome a truly desperatesituation. It is a Batman story like none other and one that will truly resonatewith fans. Art by the incredible and talented Eduardo Risso (100 BULLETS,TRANSMETROPOLITAN).
