From the visionary mind of living comics legend Neal Adams comes Blood! The deceptively simple-minded Lionel has been kidnapped and brutalized by a criminal syndicate with ties to the medieval Knights Templar. His only hope is his "friend" Jorge Maslow--the one-man army otherwise known as Blood! Flowing through Blood''s veins is an arcane, unfathomable power whose origins stretch back to the very dawn of human history. An ancient struggle will come to a head in single fiery night of war! Collecting Neal Adams'' original stories from Dark Horse Presents, this book features an incredible animated 3D lenticular cover.

As Superman tries to find answers as to why Darkseid''s son, Kalibak, has kidnapped a young Middle-Eastern boy and his dog, three other Kryptonians have come to watch over Earth. Meanwhile, the planet Nibiru, which became New Krypton for the liberated Kandorians, is preparing to host Darkseid as he attempts to subjugate their world to make it his New Apokolips.

The terror of Apokolips continues as the combined might of Kal-El and the warriors from Kandor fight back against Darkseid''s legions!

Legendary Batman artist and comics pioneer Neal Adams returns to Gotham City with the first issue of two 6-part miniseries! In this electrifying new story, The Dark Knight faces a series of seemingly unrelated challenges as villains and allies old and new push him to his limits like never before. After Batman discovers a dark and mysterious matrix being superimposed over his life, what sort of life-changing voyage must he embark on to escape from this powerful and insidious force? Be here to find out as Adams writes and illustrates his next masterpiece Batman tale!

Batman must kill or be killed! The threat is real and can''t be stopped by man or hero. To combat it, Batman must bring time itself to a standstill so that he can embark on an odyssey of self-discovery to a place unknown to mankind!

Batman''s odyssey has brought him to the underworld, where the League of Assassins has been firmly established for decades! The League is liquidating its enemies to make way for the Sensei to take over his father''s kingdom, and after that, the world itself. But if Batman can''t conquer his inner demons and learn to save lives by taking them, he may forfeit the war to the League!

The first part of Neal Adams''s Batman epic comes to a dramatic conclusion as Batman, Deadman and The Joker-working together and against each other-break into Arkham Asylum and confront the doctors who control the most heinous criminals. But does some other powerful individual control these monsters? Is it the Sensei, the deadliest martial artist in the word and leader of the League of Assassins? Or is it Ra''s al Ghul, the greatest opponent Batman has ever faced? And is The Dark Knight willing to let Talia die to bring this monstrous clash to an end?

What did Batman expect to find on his Odyssey to the Underworld? So far it''s been nothing but tragedy. Once the Dark Knight took the first step, the world he knew was gone. Will Batman become the thing he most loathes: a murderer?

Faced with the deaths of Talia, himself and everything Bruce Wayne holds dear, Bruce and his new friends Bat Man and Primus have put life on hold to make their way through the strangest place in Earth: the underworld.

The fourth chapter of Neal Adams''s epic Batman tale sees Bruce Wayne confronted with a terrible moment that harks back to his origin. Will this shocking episode derail Batman from his odyssey? Guest-starring Aquaman, Deadman, Talia and Man-Bat!

Batman legend Neal Adams returns to The Dark Knight! In the third chapter of Adams''s epic Batman tale, Bruce Wayne and Alfred strategize the next steps on The Dark Knight''s odysseyÛbut appearances by both The Riddler and Talia al Ghul might spoil their plans!

Ra''s al Ghul''s underworld has taken Batman to the brink of cold-blooded murderÜand now beyond. Will Batman step up to the hard decisions? And what if Robin gets in the way?

Neal Adams''s ODYSSEY ramps up as The Caped Crusader slowly but surely loses control. A dark presence lurking in the background begins pulling Bruce''s stringsÛwho is responsible? This second chapter is a tour de force of action as the greatest crime fighter on Earth displays his vicious combat skills.

Has Batman learned the lesson he was destined to learn? The Sensei, a warrior of the highest caliber, can be defeated only by an act Batman swore he would never commit. Can Bruce Wayne, the Dark Knight Detective, put aside his morality for the sake of his city, his world, and the people closest to him?

Batman has sidestepped death time and time again, but that all ends in this issue with the gut-wrenching reality of the Underworld. It''s a surrealÜyet all too realÜvoyage into a personal hell of his own. Batman will never be the same.

Batman knows his odyssey must happen soon before he loses himself, but Deadman invades The Dark Knight''s world and only sees the inevitable crash and burn of his old friend. Should Deadman add to Batman''s _crash"-or hold off and give the Caped Crusader a few last moments of relative peace? This is Deadman we''re talking about-of course he''s going to step in! Oh, and there''s one more thorn in Batman''s side-in this issue, The Joker arrives!
