From Booklist

Gotham City's tranquil suburbs are shattered by a string of murders that stumps the county sheriff. Batman steps in and realizes immediately that the murders are more than they seem. Solving them and nabbing the perp only begin clearing up the mystery. Sucked into ritualistic dark magic and pursued by zombies, Batman faces a puzzle that, defying logic, requires him to suspend disbelief. Niles' creepy psychological tale takes the Dark Knight down, if not new avenues, then some less-traveled roads. Scott Hampton's line work and Jose Villarrubia's coloring add hard edges and haunting shadows; this is stunning artwork. Tina ColemanCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved
