Batman: Dark Patterns, Vol. 1

Experience some of Batman’s earliest case files as he delves into the most dangerous corners of Gotham City! Up against a devastating serial killer dubbed the "Wound Man," the Dark Knight is pushed to his physical and mental limits as the bodies pile up.

A new serial killer is terrorizing Gotham City, and his MO seems to be torturing his victims to death with surgical precision. But there’s more than just sadism at play, Batman soon realizes, and this newly christened "Wound Man" has more up his sleeve than just a brutal desire for violence.

Set in the early years of Batman’s career, Batman: Dark Patterns Vol. 1 pairs all-star creators Dan Watters and Hayden Sherman up to explore the mysteries that would go on to define the World’s Greatest Detective as we know him today.
