One of the most influential Batman stories of all time is back in print for the first time in more than a decade, now available as an oversize deluxe edition hardcover! In 1988, comics legends Jim Starlin (creator of Thanos) and Bernie Wrightson (co-creator of Swamp Thing) teamed for the thrilling four-issue series Batman: The Cult, one of the most celebrated Batman stories that stands next to other classics of its era like Batman: Death in the Family and Batman: The Killing Joke. Now, after years out of print, fans can once again enjoy the story that helped influence The Dark Knight Rises, Batman: Arkham Knight, and more! In Batman: The Cult, Deacon Blackfire, a charismatic shaman with roots as old as Gotham City itself, has amassed the city's homeless into an army, one he seemingly uses to fight crime. But Blackfire has a hidden agenda... With Batman brainwashed by Blackfire and Gotham in chaos, can the Dark Knight s city be saved? This volume collects Batman: The Cult #1-4.
Jim Starlin is the acclaimed author of classic graphic novels including, for DC Comics, COSMIC ODYSSEY and BATMAN: A DEATH IN THE FAMILY, as well as the 1982 Marvel graphic novel The Death of Captain Marvel. His other works include the space operas Warlock and Dreadstar. One of the most prolific and influential writers in modern comics, Marv Wolfman began his career as an artist. Wolfman has helped shape the heroic careers of DC Comics' Green Lantern, Blackhawk, and the original Teen Titans, as well as Marvel Comics' Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, Nova, and Tomb of Dracula. In addition to co-creating THE NEW TEEN TITANS and CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS with George Perez, Wolfman was instrumental in the revamp of Superman after CRISIS. Wolfman has also written several novels and worked on Superman: The Animated Series and the Teen Titans animated series on Cartoon Network.
