Description

Ras al Ghul has lived for hundreds of years, but he is not immortal. Without access to his life-giving Lazarus Pit, death will come to the Demons Head just as it would anyone else. Ras knows his days are numbered, but his lifes work is far from complete. Time and again the Dark Knight has thwarted him, but now, in his final days, Ras must turn to the Batman for help.

In exchange for his aid, Ras offers Batman the opportunity of a lifetimethe chance to speak with his dead parents. But the reunion is not what Batman imagined, and what Martha and Thomas Wayne have to say to their son will profoundly change both the man and the hero.

This volume includes the complete nine-issue miniseries and prologue story as well as behind-the-scenes sketches and commentary.
