See how it all starts! Celebrating thirty years since the publication of the seminal storyline, BATMAN: YEAR TWO: THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION collects both the original âYear Twoâ story line from DETECTIVE COMICS and BATMAN: FULL CIRCLE in one deluxe edition. With only a yearâs experience as Gotham Cityâs new protector, Batman must now confront a nightmare out of the pastâa distorted reflection of himself called the Reaper, who hunted Gothamâs criminals a generation earlier. His methods were harsh and cruel, and violent in the extreme. Now, just as a new breed of criminal is rising, the Reaper has returned to deal out his savage brand of justice. And the only way for Batman to stop this death-dealing vigilante is to forge an alliance with the man who destroyed his lifeâhis own parentsâ murderer. But can the Dark Knight stand to confront the secret of their deaths? Or will the Reaperâs revelations finally cost him his sanity? From acclaimed creators Mike W. Barr (BATMAN: SON OF THE DEMON) and artists Alan Davis (JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA: THE NAIL, The Avengers), Todd McFarlane (Spawn), Mark Farmer (SUPERBOYâS LEGION) and Paul Neary (Captain America), this volume collects BATMAN: YEAR TWO: THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION collects both the original âYear Twoâ storyline from DETECTIVE COMICS and BATMAN: FULL CIRCLE.
