![]() The striped barricade border is a nice touch but the real imagery does a poor job of expressing what the book is all about. ![]() No Man’s Land isn’t your usual story of classic super heroics, it’s a tale of survival and because of that it’s one of the most harrowing and memorable events in the character’s history. This last disaster led to a very interesting concept: what if Gotham City was cut off from the world and its stranded inhabitants–including Batman’s rogues gallery– formed gangs and fought for territory in order to survive? Pretty awesome sounding, right? It’s a concept that’s only grown more popular with time and all the more relevant after the release of Batman: Arkham City and The Dark Knight Rises, both of which drew from this work heavily. After the Batman was broken, Gotham was consumed with plague, consumed with plague again, and then it was hit by a massive earthquake/tsunami combo. After that saga’s success, the massive cross-over event became a predictable part of the yearly comics cycle. ![]()
