Dark Night: A True Batman Story

Description

The 1 New York Times bestseller! This is a Batman story like no other—the
harrowing and eloquent autobiographical tale of writer Paul Dini’s courageous
struggle to overcome a desperate situation. The Caped Crusader has been the
all-abiding icon of justice and authority for generations. But in this
surprising original graphic novel, we see Batman in a new light—as the savior
who helps a discouraged man recover from a brutal attack that left him unable
to face the world. In the 1990s, legendary writer Paul Dini had a flourishing
career writing the hugely popular Batman: The Animated Series and Tiny Toon
Adventures. Walking home one evening, he was jumped and viciously beaten
within an inch of his life. His recovery process was arduous, hampered by the
imagined antics of the villains he was writing for television including the
Joker, Harley Quinn and the Penguin. But despite how bleak his circumstances
were, or perhaps because of it, Dini also always imagined the Batman at his
side, chivvying him along during his darkest moments. A gripping graphic
memoir of one writer’s traumatic experience and his deep connection with his
creative material, DARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY is an original graphic
novel that will resonate profoundly with fans. Art by the incredible and
talented Eduardo Risso (100 BULLETS, TRANSMETROPOLITAN). Read more
