The game-changing Batman epic returns in a new deluxe edition hardcover! As the second person to assume the role of Batman’s sidekick, Jason Todd had a completely different personality than the original Robin. Rash and prone to ignore Batman’s instructions, Jason was always quick to act without regard to consequences. This story put Jason’s fate in the readers’ hands—who voted whether or not Robin should live or die at the hands of The Joker. This tale of loss, guilt, and brutality stands as one of the most defining pieces of the Dark Knight’s mythology. Collects Batman #426-429 and #440-442, The New Teen Titans #60-61, plus several never-before-published pages that show what would have happened if Jason Todd had lived!

The event that reshaped the DC Universe, now collected in its entirety in one massive omnibus edition!
Barry Allen works for the Central City Police Department, where he’s solved numerous criminal cases. As the Flash, he protects the innocent and battles evil. He is the Fastest Man Alive! Or he was…

Barry Allen wakes up to a world that is not his own. A place where his mother was never killed…and the Flash never existed. This altered universe is on the brink of a cataclysmic war. No human has ever wielded the Green Lantern’s light, and no one has ever heard of Superman. Batman has as much blood on his hands as his enemies do, and America’s last hope is Cyborg. Powerless and alone, Barry Allen desperately tries to hold on to his memories of the reality that once was. If there is any hope of setting things right, he must convince this world’s strange, dangerous heroes to help him fix what was broken.
