Batman must save Gotham from its newest threat... another vigilante hero!

Batman is Gotham City's greatest protector. But now he's not alone. There are two new heroes in town—a pair of masked metahumans with the powers of Superman and a devotion to preserving all that is good about this twisted city. Calling themselves Gotham and Gotham Girl, they’ve saved Batman’s life, fought by his side and learned from his example.

But what happens if Gotham’s new guardians go bad? What if they blame the Dark Knight for the darkness that threatens to drown their city?

When sinister forces are unleashed that can warp the minds of men and make heroes into monsters, the time will come for Batman and his allies to decide once and for all: Is Gotham a force for good…or an engine of evil?

From the blockbuster DC Universe Rebirth event comes Batman Vol. 1: I Am Gotham—the beginning of an all-new saga in the life of the Dark Knight from superstars Tom King (The Human Target, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow) and David Finch (Forever Evil, Wonder Woman), featuring an all-star cast of creators such as Scott Snyder (Batman: The Court Of Owls), Ivan Reis (Justice League) and Mikel Janín (Justice League Dark)! This great starting-point graphic novel collects Batman: Rebirth #1 and Batman #1-6.
After co-creating the title Ascension and penciling the first four issues of Aphrodite IX for Image Comics, David Finch moved to Marvel Comics where he went on to illustrate acclaimed runs of Ultimate X-MenThe New AvengersMoon Knight, and Ultimatum. In 2010, he was lured to DC Comics by the siren call of the Caped Crusader and began his career there with contributions to the landmark Batman #700 and then as penciler of Batman: The Return. He then began writing and drawing the ongoing series Batman: The Dark Knight. After an 18-issue run on that title, Finch moved on to his current assignments; working with writer Geoff Johns first on Justice League of America and currently on Forever Evil, the first universe-wide crossover of The New 52.
