New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman, the co-creator of Sandman and writer of The Graveyard Book, re-teams with his collaborator on Marvel's 1602, superstar artist Andy Kubert (Batman and Son), to tell the story that delves into life, death and the afterlife, leaving no stone unturned and exploring every aspect of The Dark Knight's life and crimefighting career. This tale parallels the classic "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" epic written by Alan Moore (Watchmen) which is considered one of the top five all time Superman stories among Superman fans.
