Graphic novels to read anywhere: DC Compact Comics collect DC’s bestselling, most iconic stories in a new size!
Writer/artist Sean Murphy turns Gotham City on its head with a new take on Batman and his archnemesis, The Joker, in this stylish, not-to-be-missed graphic novel!
Batman: White Knight follows the man now known as Jack Napier as he embarks on a quest to heal the city he once terrorized. After reconciling with his long-suffering partner, Harley Quinn, he sets in motion a carefully plotted campaign to discredit the one person whom he views as Gotham City’s true enemy: Batman.
His crusade exposes a decades-long history of corruption within the Gotham City Police Department and transforms Napier into a city councilman and civic hero. But when the sins of his past return to threaten everything that he has accomplished, the distinctions between savior and destroyer begin to break down for both The Joker and Batman alike—and with them any hope for Gotham’s future.
After breaking into the industry at a young age, Sean Murphy made a name for himself in the world of indie comics before joining up with DC. In his tenure, he has worked on such titles as Batman/Scarecrow: Year One, Teen Titans, Hellblazer, Joe the Barbarian, and the miniseries American Vampire: Survival of the Fittest. Sean also wrote and illustrated the original graphic novel Off Road, as well as his recent popular miniseries, Punk Rock Jesus. Currently, he can be seen working as the artist on the critically acclaimed Vertigo miniseries The Wake with Scott Snyder.
