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. Rated T Cover price $1.00.

Although strong and relentless, Batman has no super powers. His powers are his Sherlock Holmes-like abilities of deduction and detection.

Two dozen entries from Batman's "Case Files" are featured. Most are written by Batman himself, but a couple are from the Police Commissioner Gordon, and there are a couple from the Batman's right hand man, Alfred the Butler. Cases range from the puzzling to the bizarre and feature such classic Batman villains as The Joker, Catwoman, Poison Ivy, and Two-Face. Interspersed among the Case File reports are sidebars that focus on specific kinds of forensic science that Batman uses to solve his cases. There are brief and informative and allow readers to understand why a certain method of detection is chosen in a specific case. Hardcover, 352 pages, Text Only.

1st printing. Written by Will Brooker. Will Brookers in depth investigation into Batman Begins and The Dark Knight uncovers the complex relationship between popular films, audiences, and producers in our age of media convergence. He addresses a myriad of questions raised by these films: did Batman Begins end when The Dark Knight began? Does its story include Burger Kings Dark Whopper, the Gotham Knight DVD, or the Why So Serious viral marketing campaign? Is it separate from the parallel narratives of the Arkham Asylum videogame, the monthly comic books, the animated series and the graphic novels? Can the brightly campy incarnations of the Batman ever be fully repressed by The Dark Knight, or are they an intrinsic part of the character? In other words, do all of these various manifestations feed into a single Batman metanarrative? Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8-in., 256 pages, text only.
