Batman: Nosferatu #1
Key Issue
Synopsis
Batman: Nosferatu is the second part in DC'c ambitious German expressionist trilogy [first: Superman's Metropolis (Elseworlds)], third: Wonder Woman: The Blue Amazon]. Taken as a part of a whole, Nosferatu takes daring steps in continuing the world that was created with Metropolis. This is the most adequate sequel to Superman: Metropolis that I could imagine. Taken as a separate entity apart from what's come before, Nosferatu obliterates any concrete ideas of what you think Batman can be. The only Batman book that comes close to being as dark as this is Grant Morrison's Arkham Asylum, and even that falls extremely short of the twisted agony that inhabits Batman's world. This book is the most dark and dingy Batman book I've read. Nightmare on paper.
