Batman: Off-World #2
Batman has slipped the surly bonds of Earth to train against some of the strongest and most ruthless aliens in DC’s cosmos. Taking place sometime during the early years of the Dark Knight, an encounter with an alien mercenary highlighted some of his blindspots in a world of magic, myths, and massive threats. Enslaved aboard an alien craft filled with assassins and killers, Bruce will now have to work with a Tamaranean warrior to plan his escape and fix his failures.
