Batman / Knightfall and Beyond / Alan Grant

Batman has always protected Gotham City. He has never been defeated. But in a fierce battle to the death with the evil Bane, Batman’s spine is finally broken and the fight really begins. Bruce Wayne must relinquish the role of Batman and his legacy to his apprentice Azrael and come to terms with his injury and Azrael’s tendency to punish the wicked rather than protect the innocent.
