Spinning out from the Eisner Award nominated pages of Superman- Space Age comes Batman- Dark Age, a brand-new series from Mark Russell and Michael Allred that reimagines the origin story of the Dark Knight against a backdrop of real-world historical events! The year is 2030 and an elderly Bruce Wayne is struggling with against the debilitating affects of aging. No longer the spry hero he once was, Bruce has turned to his memories to help hold on to the past for as long as he can - a past that dates back to 1957 and a fateful night that saw both his parents murdered in cold blood. But becoming the Caped Crusader is anything but easy, especially when you're an angry teenage boy who prefers to punch first and ask questions later in the tumultuous '60s! Batman- Dark Age collects the full series, issues #1 through 6.
