Christmas. St. Patrick's Day. Easter. As the calendar's days stack up,
so do the bodies littered in the streets of Gotham City. A murderer is
loose, killing only on holidays. The only man that can stop this fiend?
The Dark Knight. In a mystery taking place during Batman's early days of
crime fighting, Batman: The Long Halloween is one of the greatest Dark
Knight stories ever told.
Working with District Attorney Harvey Dent and Lieutenant James Gordon,
Batman races against the calendar as he tries to discover who Holiday is
before he claims his next victim each month. A mystery that has the
reader continually guessing the identity of the killer, this story also
ties into the events that transform Harvey Dent into Batman's deadly
enemy, Two-Face.
The magnificent creative team of Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale reach their apex
in Batman: The Long Halloween. This edition includes original 13-issue
series as well as four additional story pages cut from the original
series, which are presented fully colored and restored to their place in
the story. Also featured are sketches and an introduction by the
director and writer of The Dark Knight Rises, Christopher Nolan and
David Goyer.
