What it's all about...
A host of faces from Batman's shadowy past resurface to cause him trouble in this Jeph Loeb-penned story arc - one of whom may or may not be the long-thought-dead second Robin, Jason Todd. A new criminal going by the name of Hush is causing mayhem in Gotham and roping most of the Bat's rogues' gallery into a labyrinthine plot which is intended to bring about the demise of the dark city's caped crusader.

Why you should read it...
At once a thrilling whodunit and a refreshingly playful break from the, well, darker Dark Knight stories, Hush explores the notion of superheroism and Batman's reasons for doing what he does in the name of justice.
