Direct Edition

Label #23-046825D-002

WRITTEN BY BRIAN AZARELLO; ART BY EDUARDO RISSO; PAINTED COVER BY DAVE JOHNSON. The writer-artist team behind the acclaimed JONNY DOUBLE returns with a gripping new ongoing series, featuring painted covers by artist Dave Johnson ("The Justice Society Returns!"). Everyone talks about "getting away with murder," but what would you do if you were given irrefutable proof of the identity of the one that "done you wrong," the opportunity to kill them and the means to get away with it, scot-free? When former gangbanger Dizzy Cordova meets the mysterious Agent Graves, she is given the opportunity of a lifetime in the form of an attache case containing the proof, the gun, and the carte blanche immunity to exact revenge for the drive-by shootings that killed her family. Now she faces the hardest decision of her life in the form of a question that has no easy answer: If you could get away with murder, and your victim truly deserved it, what would you do?

Cover by Bruce Timm. Stories by Paul Dini with Bruce Timm and Ronnie Del Carmen. Art by Bruce Timm, Ronnie Del Carmen, Kevin Altieri & Butch Lukic, Dan Riba and Glen Murakami. December in Gotham City -- that's the theme of THE BATMAN ADVENTURES HOLIDAY SPECIAL, a 64-page one-shot special featuring five thrilling, funny or touching yuletide stories by a slew of creators from The Adventures of Batman & Robin, the hit cartoon from Warner Bros. Animation. Emmy award-winning writer/producer Paul Dini writes all five stories. Art for the lead feature "Jolly Ol' St. Nicholas," featuring Detective Harvey Bullock teaming with Batgirl in a tense battle against Clayface, is by director/producer Bruce Timm, Dini's collaborator on the Eisner and Harvey Award-winning THE BATMAN ADVENTURES: MAD LOVE. Also in the Special, artist Ronnie Del Carmen illustrates "The Harley and the Ivy," a tale of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy in which the duo kidnaps millionaire Bruce Wayne so they can go on an unlimited shopping spree. A madcap New Year's Eve with the Joker is the subject of "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?", the story pencilled by director Kevin Altieri, while elsewhere, Batman and Commissioner Gordon take time out to share some New Year's cheer in "Should Old Acquaintance Be Forgot," with art by director Dan Riba. And the icing of Gotham City is just the beginning of the poignant Mr. Freeze story "White Christmas," illustrated by artist Glen Murakami. 64 pages, full color. Cover price $2.95.
