Batman Vol. 4 (2025-) #2

Plot

Collects Batman #7-12.

From Eisner Award–winning writer Matt Fraction and superstar artist Jorge Jiménez comes the next chapter in DC’s bold new era of Batman — where legacy, innovation, and sheer style converge in the ultimate reinvention of the Caped Crusader.

Following the smash-hit first volume, Batman Vol. 2 continues the modern classic in the making, combining sharp detective storytelling with explosive superhero spectacle. Fraction’s cinematic pacing and Jiménez’s masterful design work together to showcase a Batman equally human and mythic — built for longtime fans and new readers alike.

In this volume, The Joker returns as you've never seen him before — and even Batman isn't prepared for this latest incarnation of pop culture's greatest villain. Plus, acclaimed artist Ryan Sook joins for a special story of a memorable night in Gotham City, and the GCPD — under the direction of Commissioner Vandal Savage — launches an all-out assault on the Bat-Family!
