Book Synopsis
One of the most acclaimed and unique Batman stories is back in print, from comics legends Jim Starlin and Bernie Wrightson! Deacon Blackfire, a charismatic shaman with roots as old as Gotham City itself, has amassed the city's homeless into an army, one he seemingly uses to fight crime. But Blackfire has a hidden agenda! In 1988, comics legends Jim Starlin (creator of Thanos) and Bernie Wrightson (co-creator of Swamp Thing) teamed for the thrilling four-issue series Batman: The Cult, one of the most celebrated Batman stories that stands next to other classics of its era like Batman: Death in the Family and Batman: The Killing Joke. In Batman: The Cult, Deacon Blackfire, a charismatic shaman with roots as old as Gotham City itself, has amassed the city's homeless into an army, one he seemingly uses to fight crime. But Blackfire has a hidden agenda... With Batman brainwashed by Blackfire and Gotham in chaos, can the Dark Knight's city be saved? This volume collects Batman: The Cult #1-4.About the Author
