1st printing. By John Jackson Miller. Batman matches wits with The Riddler and uncovers Gothams past in this sequel to BATMAN: RESURRECTION, set in the world of Tim Burton's iconic Batman. Its summer, and Gotham City has cause for celebration. The last vestiges of The Jokers toxic legacy have finally faded, just in time for the mayor to partner with retail magnate Max Shreck to stage a Fourth of July celebration for the ages. But not everyone is rejoicing. Batmans eternal vigilance continues as threats from rival gangs and masked criminals escalate by the day. Meanwhile, on the streets, protests grow in opposition to the citys lavish excesses. No one is experiencing the struggle between Gothams optimism and doubt more than Norman Pinkus. The Gotham Globes humble copy boy, hes the unacknowledged mastermind behind the newspapers mega-popular Riddle Me This word puzzles. But Norman harbors a secret. He is the smartest man in Gotham City, using his prodigious skills to solve crimes anonymously for years via the police tip line—before Batman even knows theres a crime to solve. While neither fame nor fortune finds Norman, he believes in the promise of Gotham and whats right . . . until he doesnt. The man no one notices watches time and again as the city and its leaders cast their eyes high above the rooftops toward Batman. Dejected and unappreciated, Norman devises a scheme: With the help of dangerous new friends, he exploits the simmering tensions of the long hot summer to draw the Caped Crusader into a volatile game of riddles to crown Gothams true savior. As they clash, Norman—now known as The Riddler—and Batman will uncover hidden secrets about Gothams past that will have dire consequences for the citys future. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 544 pages.

Volume 14 -1st printing. Story and art by Shinsuke Kondo. Since before the dawn of memory, one thing has defined human history: the war between ninjas and yakuzas. This coarse and manly manga follows two members of these warring tribes who fill the gutters of modern Tokyo with blood to determine which elemental force will reign supreme! An outrageous new action series, like Jojo's Bizarre Adventure meets Fist of the North Star! Shinoha is a frickin' NINJA. He can't even smile because of a dark trauma in his past that you'll find out about later. But for now, what you need to know is, he kicks ass and can kill so many guys. Kiwami, on the other hand, looks like a regular business guy, but actually he's a flipping YAKUZA. Everyone knows ninjas and yakuzas have been at war for three hundred years, so when Kiwami and Shinoha meet, it's like, fwoosh, slice, kabloop, stab stab stab... My point is, this manga has REAL ULTIMATE POWER and, if you read it? Maybe you can too. Softcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 192 pages, B&W. Older Teen 16+ Cover price $13.99.
