Following his ground-breaking, critically acclaimed run on "Detective Comics," writer Scott Snyder ("American Vampire") alongside artist Greg Capullo ("Spawn") begins a new era of The Dark Knight as with the relaunch of "Batman," as a part of DC Comics -"The New 52".

After a series of brutal murders rocks Gotham City, Batman begins to realize that perhaps these crimes go far deeper than appearances suggest. As the Caped Crusader begins to unravel this deadly mystery, he discovers a conspiracy going back to his youth and beyond to the origins of the city he's sworn to protect. Could the Court of Owls, once thought to be nothing more than an urban legend, be behind the crime and corruption? Or is Bruce Wayne losing his grip on sanity and falling prey to the pressures of his war on crime?

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this.
