DISCUSSION

\\nDARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY\\n
Writer: Paul Dini\\n
Artist: Eduardo Risso\\n
Publisher: DC Comics/Vertigo\\n
Cover Price: $9.99 (Digital)\\n
Walking home one evening, Dini was jumped and viciously beaten. With several broken bones and a shattered face, Dini experienced an arduous recovery process, hampered by the imagined antics of the villains he was writing for television, including the Joker, Harley Quinn, and the Penguin. But despite how bleak his circumstances were, or perhaps because of it, Dini also always imagined the Batman at his side, constantly chivvying him along during his darkest moments.\\n
\\n

While most know the Caped Crusader as the all-abiding icon of justice and authority, in this surprising story, we see Batman in a new light\\u2014not as the dark avenger, but the savior who helped a discouraged man recover mentally from a brutal attack that left him unable to face the world.
