No Man's Land has
ended, and Gotham City is whole once again. But the wounds of No Man's
Land run deep, and an old foe of Batman's is set to take full advantage of
Gotham's fragile state.
BATMAN: EVOLUTION is a 224-page trade
paperback reprinting the lead stories from DETECTIVE COMICS #743-750 - the
first major story arc by writer Greg Rucka (DETECTIVE COMICS, Whiteout)
and artists Shawn Martinbrough (CREEPER) & Steve Mitchell (DETECTIVE
COMICS). EVOLUTION features additional art by John Watkiss, William Rosado,
and Phil Hester, plus a brand new cover by Dave Johnson (100 BULLETS).
Gotham City is split into two bitterly
divided factions: OG's (original Gothamites) and the DeeZee's (No Man's
Land deserters). But while Batman and Commissioner Gordon struggle to
maintain order, a new force threatens to consume Gotham - and perhaps the
world! One of the Batman's greatest enemies returns with new, demonic
cohorts. His name: Ra's al Ghul! And only the Dark Knight stands between
the Demon and his plans of conquest!
