Who infected Batman, what does the Clown Prince of Crime know, and how will the Dark Knight get that information?

Co-conceived by Matteo Casali and Brian Azzarello, this 4-issue miniseries event will feature art by top talents over layouts by the incomparable Giuseppe Camuncoli (HELLBLAZER, Dark Wolverine), with the first issue pencilled and inked by none other than Jim Lee!
Batman: Europa #1 will go on sale on November 18th.
