Release June 1, 2027
Part of the DC Omnibus guide — every release, in reading order
Batman’s formative cases unfold across a landmark series, collected for the first time in a comprehensive Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight omnibus hardcover.
Originally published as a groundbreaking anthology series with rotating creative teams, Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight presents a wide range of self-contained stories that explore the complexity of Batman’s early years.
In these revered stories, the Dark Knight confronts psychological threats, criminal conspiracies, and personal failures that test his resolve. Each arc offers a different perspective on Gotham and its protector, charting the evolution of a hero still refining his mission and methods.
This volume begins the first comprehensive omnibus collection of the series, bringing together its landmark opening run in a large-scale, immersive edition.
Collects Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #1-38, Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight Annual #1, Batman #474, and Detective Comics #641.
