Batman #53

JUN180465

(W) Tom King (A/CA) Lee Weeks

"Cold Days" continues! The jury in the Mr. Freeze trial is hopelessly deadlocked because one man won't vote guilty-and that man is Bruce Wayne. Freeze's defense is that Batman used excessive force, making his arrest illegal, and Bruce is the one man who actually knows for sure what went down between Batman and his ice-cold nemesis. And if Bruce is right, that means everything he's devoted himself to as the Caped Crusader is a lie; he is hurting more than helping. With Dick Grayson putting the Batsuit back on to keep Gotham City safe while Bruce is sequestered, could this be the out Bruce needs to discard the cape and cowl forever?

The Eisner Award-nominated team of Tom King and Lee Weeks reexamine the relationship between hero and foe, as Batman relives not just that one violent night when he took down the King of Cold, but every time the two have come to blows.

Ninja-K #10

JUN182074

(W) Christos Gage (A) Juan Jose Ryp (CA) Giuseppe Camuncoli

A BLOCKBUSTER NEW JUMPING-ON POINT! In Margaret Thatcher's Britain, meet the future of espionage: the hard-hitting, brutalizing super-spy codenamed NINJA-H!

From the encrypted files of The Ninja Programme, another secret chapter revealed! The Cold War is in full swing and the United Kingdom's top-secret intelligence unit has come to a crossroads. As their once-elite collection of secret agents finds itself outmatched by the escalation of the United States' H.A.R.D. Corps division, the spymasters of MI6 are about to develop a new kind of soldier for their never- ending war of global gamesmanship and international intrigue. Part man, part machine, and bound together with the most extreme
technological enhancements that the 1980s have to offer, NINJA-H is faster, stronger, and deadlier than any who have come before...

Now, for the first time, the metal-crunching saga of MI6's one-man, super-powered strike force - and his tragic fall from grace - can finally be told as renowned writer Christos Gage (Netflix's Daredevil) teams with comics legend Larry Stroman (X-Factor) to declassify the next standalone shadow-laden chapter in the history of Ninjak's fellow Ninja Programme agents!
