Последние издания книг Дарвина Кука

ОПОЛЧЕНЦЫ — Ночная Сова, Шелковая Тень, Капитан Метрополис, Правосудие В Капюшоне, Комедиант, Силуэт, Мотылек, Мистер Доллар — объединили усилия для борьбы с преступностью в стремительно меняющемся мире. Но кто из них усомнится в том, где пролегает граница между героем и негодяем, и сделает роковой шаг — шаг между жизнью и смертью?

Шестнадцатилетнюю Лорел Джейн Юпитер с рождения готовили к тому, чтобы она пошла по стопам матери и стала новой ШЕЛКОВОЙ ТЕНЬЮ. Взбунтовавшись против столь неусыпной опеки, она сбегает из Лос-Анджелеса в Сан-Франциско — и оказывается в самом центре молодежной революции. Но идеалы «детей цветов» не всех устраивают, и мафиози Председатель берет дело под личный контроль...

Свою историю рассказывают МИСТЕР ДОЛЛАР и МОЛОХ. Один мечтал выступать в мюзиклах, а стал лицом Национального банка и — поневоле — настоящим борцом с преступностью. Другой, прославившись как иллюзионист, стремился к большему — и стал одним из заправил преступного мира...

Что это? Результат тяжелой психологической травмы? А может, измученное сознание Брюса Уэйна сыграло с ним злую шутку? Так или иначе, Темный Рыцарь встретился с тем, кто прятался глубоко внутри, с воплощением своего страха. Как бороться с внешними врагами Бэтмен хорошо знает, но сражаться с самим собой ему еще не доводилось.

Ясно одно: от этого Брюса не жди ничего хорошего…

Бэтмен живет в мире насилия, и насилие — движущая сила его мотивов. Он готов восстанавливать справедливость любой ценой. Уверенность в правильности этого метода дает трещину, после того как на глазах Темного Рыцаря один из приспешников Джокера убивает себя. Герой, не ведающий страха и сомнений, впадает в депрессию и добровольно заточает себя в Бэт-пещере. Он не покинет ее, пока не разберется в себе и не поймет, что на самом деле движет им, что управляет его «я» — страх или желание защищать, жажда мести или стремление к справедливости?

Welcome to the DC Universe in 1950s America -- a land of promise and paranoia, of glittering cities and segregated slums, of dizzying scientific progress and simmering Cold War conflict. A land without the Justice League--Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Or so it seems. Darwyn Cooke's undeniable classic is now released as a part of DC's prestigious new imprint of standalone graphic novels, DC Black Label. The masked mystery men who fought for freedom in the Second World War have been outlawed. The soldiers and spies who conducted top-secret missions into the unknown now work in the shadows. And those icons who do still fight on --…
