Army veteran, may have been experimented or exposed to chemicals, but he can’t talk about it.

Whatever happened to him then, he has cancer now.

He is caretaker at a church…

…and visited by Joker who…

…bequeaths to him a mystical sword and a mission to kill Bruce Wayne!

The book ends with black and white preview pages of Batman: Curse of the White Knight #2 including a full page spread of Azrael in costume and armed.

He’s also on next issue’s cover as he was this month too.

While its from a different continuity, here’s a classic Who’s Who bio for Azrael.

The Pulse:

An accessible story with lots of Batman, Joker and Azrael moments, but I found the pages on the last two the most compelling. Great art that complements the tone of the story. 8 out of 10.
