Dan Watters Krim & Mysterier|Batman^Batman: Dark Patterns

A series of four self-contained, street-level, evergreen Batman mysteries exploring the early days of Batman s place within Gotham City and his healing presence within its streets. Batman: Dark Patterns is a grounded, mystery-driven series set in the early days of Batman s career, echoing the tone and style of classics such as The Long Halloween, Dark Victory, and Hush. Written by Dan Watters, with art by Hayden Sherman, each three-part story is a self-contained detective case rooted in the trauma and transformation of Gotham s people and cityscape. Emphasizing Batman s role as a methodical sleuth and shadowy symbol of hope, the series avoids cosmic or supernatural elements in favor of lo-fi, solvable mysteries that showcase the Dark Knight as a healer cloaked in darkness.
