In celebration of the 15th anniversary of the critically acclaimed Batman story that helped launch the U.S. careers of Grant Morrison and Dave McKean, DC Comics is proud to present the ARKHAM ASYLUM 15th ANNIVERSARY EDITION - a 216-page hardcover reprinting the now-classic confrontation between the Dark Knight and his arch-nemeses the Joker, Two-Face, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, and more in the black heart of Gotham City's house for the criminally insane.
This graphic novel is well-known for its psychological intensity and probing portraits of Batman and the Joker, as well as groundbreaking art that influenced scores of artists by introducing a new school of storytelling and technique to comics. This special edition also includes Morrison's complete final script annotated by both himself and original editor Karen Berger, many of his original thumbnail breakdowns, step-by-step samples of how the story and art came together, and more surprises!
