Someone is targeting Batman’s allies in Gotham—young and untested heroes who model themselves after the Dark Knight but don’t yet have his training or resources.

They are the greatest team of superheroes Gotham City has ever known. At least, they used to be. Now the Gotham Knights, the elite team of vigilantes that Batman assembled, are tearing themselves apart. Batwoman stands accused of crimes against one of their own. But by reuniting with her ruthless father, she's got an entire army at her disposal, ready to purge Gotham of all her enemies--even if that includes the Dark Knight himself. Tim Drake is considered the greatest of Batman's many protégés. But now the crime-fighter called Red Robin must decide if he and his mentor have any kind of future together--and he'd better decide fast, because sinister forces are aligning to lock the darkest of all possible futures into place for him. Batwing and Azrael, Spoiler and Cassandra Cain--each will have to choose a side, and quite possibly go to war against heroes with whom they'd once fought shoulder to shoulder. The final hour of Batman's dream team has come. Could it somehow become their finest hour, too? With an all-star team of artists, writer James Tynion IV presents Batman: Detective Comics: The Rebirth Deluxe Edition Book 4--the stunning conclusion to one of the most unexpected and acclaimed chapters in Batman's entire history, all in one hardcover volume.
