    Batman Legends of the Dark Knight (1989) 132

    The last comic-book story written by the late Archie Goodwin is completed by Goodwin colleague James Robinson and pencilled by legendary Batman artist Marshall Rogers with inks by Bob Wiacek and covers by Rogers and his REALWORLDS: BATMAN collaborator John Cebollero in "Siege," a 5-part story. Rogers' involvement is especially appropriate since the story involves the much-requested return of one of the best-loved characters from his run on DETECTIVE COMICS (reprinted in the BATMAN: STRANGE APPARITIONS trade paperback): Bruce Wayne's girlfriend, Silver St. Cloud. Set soon after Rogers's aforementioned run, Part 1 of "Siege" finds a former military man named Brass making a mysterious arrival in Gotham City. Once one of America's finest soldiers, Brass now commands a deadly group of out-of-work mercenaries determined to loot Gotham and secure their own financial futures. But Brass has another motive: to expand his family's past connections to the Wayne family (connections that span several generations) to the present and future of Bruce Wayne's vast fortune. And to accomplish his goal, he has decided to enlist the services of one of Bruce Wayne's closest friends ? the aforementioned Silver St. Cloud ? by whatever means necessary. One of very few "civilians" to have learned the Dark Knight's true identity, will Silver be able to protect the greatest secret of the man she loves? Cover price $2.25.
