Inhaltsangabe

Before the Bat-Signal lights the sky, Gotham’s detectives are already on the case. Gotham Central delivers a gripping police procedural set in the shadow of the Dark Knight, where the officers of the GCPD face down supervillains, corruption, and the chaos of a city on the edge. It’s Law & Order meets Batman—with no capes to save the day.

Gotham Central: DC Compact Comics Edition collects the first ten issues of the Eisner and Harvey Award-winning series by Ed Brubaker, Greg Rucka, and Michael Lark. This grounded, character-driven volume follows the detectives of Gotham City’s Major Crimes Unit as they investigate the murder of one of their own by Mister Freeze, navigate internal politics, and confront the psychological toll of working in a city haunted by both criminals and vigilantes. With appearances by Batman, Two-Face, and more, this is a street-level look at Gotham like you’ve never seen before.

Greg Rucka is a prolific comic book writer and novelist whose work often centers on strong, complex characters in morally gray worlds. In Gotham Central, Rucka explores the emotional and ethical challenges faced by Gotham’s police force, particularly through the lens of Detective Renee Montoya. His other notable works include Batwoman: Elegy, Wonder Woman, and the creator-owned series Lazarus and The Old Guard.

Ed Brubaker is an Eisner Award-winning writer known for redefining the crime genre in comics.

Brubaker is also acclaimed for his runs on Captain America, Criminal, and The Fade Out, and is widely credited with helping to revive interest in noir storytelling in modern comics.

Michael Lark is a master of atmospheric, cinematic storytelling, known for his moody, expressive linework. His art in Gotham Central perfectly captures the tension and grit of the series, grounding the fantastical elements of Gotham in a stark, believable reality.
