By: Judd Winick (writer), Ben Oliver (artist), Brian Reber (colorist) The Story: Now seems right to make a politically incorrect joke about the Darker Knight, yes?

By Bill Willingham and Judd Winick (writers), Rick Leonardi (pencils), Carl Story and Dan Green (inks), Alex Bleyaert (colors) Within the first 10 pages, I thought this book would be a complete disaster.
