So runs the code that the vigilante known as the Huntress has followed all her life.

Now, in the aftermath of Gotham City’s “No Man’s Land,” someone is out for Huntress’s blood, and her code of omertà is leading her into destruction. What fuels this single-minded devotion to vengeance? How did a little girl named Helena Bertinelli grow up to be the Huntress? Finding out may be the only way that a man called the Question can keep her alive. But even if he can gain her trust, the Question can only push her so far. In the end, only the Huntress can choose which road she will take — the path of justice, or the path of vengeance.

BATMAN/HUNTRESS: CRY FOR BLOOD collects the acclaimed six-issue miniseries created by Eisner Award-winning writer Greg Rucka (DETECTIVE COMICS) and Eisner Award-winning artists Rick Burchett (BATMAN AND ROBIN ADVENTURES) and Terry Beatty (BATMAN: GOTHAM ADVENTURES).
Greg Rucka is a novelist whose work on Batman brought fresh attention to the character and to the inhabitants of Gotham City. He won the Eisner Award for Best Story with Gotham Central's "Half a Life." His other DC credits include Action Comics, Adventures of Superman, Wonder Woman, the Batwoman adventures in Detective Comics, and Superman: World of New Krypton. He was one of the co-writers of DC's weekly series 52. View titles by Greg Rucka
