Description
How did Ra's al Ghul become the villain that he is? How would a union between his daughter Talia and the Dark Knight benefit him? Follow along as Batman lives through and tries to unravel this mystery! Collects three original Batman graphic novels: Birth of the Demon (1987), Bride of the Demon (1990), and Son of the Demon (1987). Together for the first time. Very well drawn. New essays by writer Mike Barr and by Star Wars actor Mark Hamill. Mike Barr explores how the series actually began as an idea in 1985 and came to be an all-new graphic novel series that was highly successful when released. In Son of the Demon, Batman and his enemy Ra's form an uneasy alliance to stop a global ecoterrorist, but Batman finds his focus pulled to his new romance with the Demon's beautiful daughter Talia. In Bride of the Demon, rather than relying on Batman and Talia's union to produce an heir, Ra's takes a wife -- an actress restored to youth by his Lazarus pit -- to sire his own successor. In Birth of the Demon, Batman uncovers the true history of Ra's -- how a man who lived (and should have died) centuries ago became the near-immortal Demon's Head. Also sets the scene for the current Robin, who is Batman and Dalia's son Damian Wayne! Large original trim size of 8.5 x 11.
