Reprinting Batman Huntress Cry for Blood (2000) #1. Written by Greg Rucka. Art and Cover by Rick Burchett. Vengeance is hers. In "No Man's Land," the dark heroine known as the Huntress played a pivotal role in keeping Gotham City's resurrection from unraveling at the last minute. But can she keep her own life from unraveling when everyone -- even Batman -- believes her to be the prime suspect in a brutal gangland murder? The answers unfold in the acclaimed miniseries that finds the Huntress reentering the world of the Mafioso to find clues to prove her innocence, all the while struggling to stay one step ahead of the Dark Knight, who is intent on bringing her to justice. CRY FOR BLOOD explores the Huntress' origin in gripping detail, along the way revealing the shocking and complex history of Gotham City's mobster underworld. What role did the family of Helena Bertinelli -- the Huntress -- play in more than a hundred years of Gotham's criminal history? And can even the Question -- himself a vigilante with a troubled past -- help Helena find redemption? CRY FOR BLOOD sets the stage for a new direction in the Huntress' life, dramatically altering her relationship to Batman and Gotham's other heroes by the miniseries' end. 32 pages, full color.

Grant Morrison has made a career of redefining heroes, but his work with Batman has been the most comprehensive. From Arkham Asylum and JLA to his seven-year run on Batman, Morrison has redefined and reworked the Caped Crusader from the ground up. He's also introduced new characters (such as Damian Wayne) and new concepts (such as Batman, Inc.). The Anatomy of Zur-En-Arrh analyzes Grant Morrison's Batman, including how it understands and reinterprets Batman's long history. Featuring an interview with Grant Morrison.
