This is one of my favorite comic books ever. The story involves a new villian, Mr. Whisper, Killing gangsters. The gangsters fight back, but this guy just isn't dying. Unlike other stories like this, Batman just tells the gangsters to rot in the hell they've created. As it turns out Mr. Whisper was the headmaster at the school Bruce Wayne went to before the death of his parents, and shocking secrets about Bruce's past are revealed. The artwork, by Klaus Janson(The Dark Knight Returns), perfectly compliments the atmosphere of this story, and the ending is unforgettable.For fans of comics, and haunting tales of the supernatural, this is a must-read.
