Absolute Batman Vol 1-3 HC

Absolute Batman Vol. 1–3 Hardcover Set

No mansion, no butler, no billions. Just Bruce Wayne and the will to fight back.

Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta's New York Times best-selling series rebuilds Batman from the ground up. In DC's Absolute Universe, Bruce isn't the heir to a Gotham fortune. He's the son of a public school teacher, shaped by an act of random violence, and he fights from the grittiest corners of the city with nothing but his brains and brawn. This set collects the first three hardcovers of the series that has become DC's top seller.

What's included:

• Vol. 1: The Zoo introduces an all-new Batman with a modern origin story. Collects Absolute Batman #1–6.
• Vol. 2: Abomination sends Batman into Ark M, a mysterious facility, where he faces the Absolute versions of Mr. Freeze and Bane and uncovers dark secrets tied to the Joker. Collects #7–14.
• Vol. 3: Devil's Workshop brings in the Joker, Poison Ivy, and the Court of Owls, and Jock returns to draw a story Alfred has been chasing for years. Collects #15–18, the Absolute Batman 2025 Annual, and the Absolute Batman: Ark M one-shot.

Creators: Scott Snyder (writer) and Nick Dragotta (artist), with art from Marcos Martín, Clay Mann, and Jock.
Format: Three hardcover graphic novels.

It works for longtime Batman fans and first-time readers alike, and it makes a great gift for anyone who wants to catch up on the series everyone's talking about.
