BATMAN THE BARBARIAN #1 (OF 6) CVR A GREG SMALLWOOD (18 Sep Release)

EISNER AWARD-WINNER GREG SMALLWOOD UNLEASHES A BRUTAL NEW BATMAN! In a world where unspeakable beasts slither through silent temples¸ and sorcerers pledge innocent lives as blood sacrifices to incomprehensible cosmic designs¸ only one man has the strength of will and brute force required to protect the people who would become prey...the fearsome¸ blade-wielding Batman! But when the all-seeing Oracle warns him of a looming shadow creeping across the land¸ he will have to contend with foes that cannot be dispatched by sword alone...including the terrible memory of the catastrophe in which he was made! Eisner Award-winning artist Greg Smallwood unleashes a brutal new vision of Bruce Wayne¸ shot through with high-fantasy hallmarks and awe-inspiring reimaginings of the classic Batman rogues gallery!
