Batman: Arkham Asylum

Description

Batman: Arkham Asylum – one of the most famous and acclaimed Batman stories, created by the legendary Grant Morrison and illustrated in the distinctive style of Dave McKean. This new edition brings back the classic story in softcover and presents newly restored McKean artwork.

The inmates of Arkham Asylum take control of the psychiatric hospital and demand one thing – Batman. In exchange for the hostages' lives, Batman must enter Arkham himself and confront his most dangerous enemies.

Penetrating deeper into the world of the insane, Batman faces Joker, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, Two-Face, and his other adversaries. But Arkham is no ordinary prison – every corridor and every patient becomes a greater psychological challenge.

In Grant Morrison's story, Batman is forced to confront not only his enemies but also his own fears and the darkest corners of his mind. Meanwhile, Dave McKean's experimental, atmospheric art transforms Arkham Asylum into an almost surreal nightmare.

This edition also features newly restored Dave McKean artwork, presented for the first time in this format.
