Absolute Batman Vol. 2: Abomination

Description

"Absolute Batman Vol. 2: Abomination" is the second volume of the "Absolute Batman" saga created by Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta, further delving into a dark, radically reinterpreted Batman mythology. At this stage, the story becomes more personal, dangerous, and far more deceptive.

Bruce Wayne begins investigating a mysterious black site known as Ark M. The investigation draws his closest allies into a deadly game, while new, powerful enemies reach Gotham. At the same time, unexpected connections between Alfred's past and Bane are revealed – this time not as a destroyer, but as the guardian of Ark M's secrets.

All of this intertwines with the shadow of the Joker, who is far more mysterious and terrifying in this series than ever before.

What's inside

• The dark secret of Ark M.
