THE WAR ON CRIME IS ABOUT TO GO GLOBAL
Returned from a fate worse than death and once again wearing the mantle of the Bat, Bruce Wayne is no longer merely Batman's secret identity. Now he's the public face and financier of Batman, Inc. - a worldwide army of like-minded crimefighters sworn to protect society from its own worst elements.
From Tokyo to Paris, from Argentina to Australia, from war-torn African villages to poverty-stricken Native American reservations, a network of Dark Knights is taking the fight to the enemy - and evil has no place to hide.
OR DOES IT?
This deluxe hardcover edition also includes a special sketchbook section showcasing preliminary art and designs from the author and artists alike.

Bionic Woman #1
Paul Tobin (A) Leo Carvalho (A)
Paris is the city of love? Not anymore... not since Jaime Sommers, the Bionic Woman, came to town hot on the trail of the Mission, a collection of insanely high-priced surgeons who've been murdering OSI's bionic prototypes in order to provide new life for billionaire patients. But while the Bionic Woman is hunting the Mission, their #1 hunter is after her! Can Jaime pick up the pieces of her past while protecting her life in the present, or will the city of love turn its back, and its bullets, on the Bionic Woman? Acclaimed writer Paul Tobin brings you a tale of baguettes, bullets, and bionic badass!

Secret Service #1
Mark Millar (W) Dave Gibbons (A)
From the writer of Kick-Ass and the artist of Watchmen comes a collaboration decades in the making. Says Millar: "Secret Service is the ramifications of [how] America is struggling on the world stage, funding is being seriously undercut to balance the books and some people are trying their best to take advantage of the fragile global situation. The hero and sidekick guys who lead the book are, i think, the best characters I've written."
Secret Service #1 has a variant cover by Dave Gibbons.
