Batman #12: Six Assassins Converge on Gotham

Batman #12 escalates things by introducing six different assassins to Gotham, setting up a deadly convergence storyline. The Dark Knight's stuck investigating who orchestrated this coordinated hit, which immediately raises questions about scale and resources. The preview also teases Alfred's final gift—a mysterious detail that suggests the issue might deliver emotional weight beyond just action sequences. It's the kind of high-stakes setup that rewards ongoing readers but should be accessible enough for new entries.
