Batman Shadow Of The Bat Annual #4 1996

Batman Shadow Of The Bat Annual #4, published in 1996, features "King Batman" as part of the "Legends of the Dead Earth" crossover event. The story depicts a dying universe where the last remaining Batman reflects on his past battles, searching for a way to achieve salvation. This issue is notable for collectors due to the first appearances of several characters within this future timeline, including He-Who-Dares, King Bruce the XXIII (who assumes the mantle of Batman), Lord Alfredo, and new iterations of Robin and the Penguin.
