Product Description:
Batman's immortal foe, Ra's Al Ghul, should be dead at last -- so how has he returned to haunt The Dark Knight?
And what does his return have to do with Batman's teenaged son, Damian -- whose mother is Ra's Al Ghul's daughter, Talia? It will take the combined skills of Batman, Robin and Nightwing to get to the bottom of these mysteries and stop Ra's Al Ghul's insidious plans!

Grant Morrison, Paul Dini, Peter Milligan, and all others involved have done better, but what's been presented here is a fun, action-packed, almost cinematic story of the resurrection of one of Batman's best villains: Ra's al Ghul. Batman, Robin, Nightwing, and a whole host of others, good and bad, race to prevent Ra's from possessing the body of Batman's son, Damian Wayne, and defiling the mystical hidden city of Nanda Parbat. Although the ending is rushed and the artwork could be better, the story ... Read More

People are far too critical of this book, and it is a real shame, as the book, cover to cover is a fun read. This is a comic. Yes, I know it written in large part by Grant Morrisson, which raised expectations, but it is a comic book. It isn't meant to be Shakespeare. it is menat to entertain, and man ohhh man, does it ever. I couldn't put it down. The art is truly wonderful, and the colors masterful. The story, though far from perfect, keeps you truning the pages. And the ending is satisfying ... Read More

The storyline of Ra's Al Ghul resurrection is not other than a inoffensive run of great talents (Morrison, Dini, Pearson etc) on a great character, Batman: the mountain gave birth to a little mouse in this case...
A washed out story that leaves you with a "so what?" aftertaste in your brain. The art is consistently good, but imho without any personality.
I hope the rest of the batman run by Morrison will be of another level.

Why does DC continue to publish these mega crossovers? Since the early 90's Batman has been subjected to overstreched storylines which run through Detective Comics, Batman, Robin, Nightwing and whatever other monthly Batman comic being published at the time.
The problem with this form of "pass the batton" storytelling is it inevitably streches the story too thin and the artwork ussually suffers at the hands of artists rushing to meet impending deadlines.
The writing on the book is a mishmash. ... Read More

I can't wait for Grant Morrison to stop writing Batman. This is some of the worst garbage to spew out of the DC Universe. Ra'a Al Ghul is kinda cool... Talia and her test-tube batbrat not so much. Only Nightwing and Robin redeam this meandering story at all.
