Synopsis "Absolute Batman and Son by Grant Morrison"

From the inspired minds of comics legend Grant Morrison (Action Comics, All-Star Superman) and artists Andy Kubert (Flashpoint), J.H. Williams III (Batwoman), and Tony S. Daniel (Detective Comics) comes several astonishing tales of the Dark Knight--plus a future glimpse of Damian Wayne taking up the mantle of Batman--in this Absolute Edition of Batman and Son. The status quo in the Bat-Family was forever changed when Damian Wayne--the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul--was introduced to the Batman mythos. Determined not to let Damian succumb to the murderous ways of the League of Assassins, Bruce takes in his son and tries to teach him how to be a hero. But Damian's indoctrination from birth as a lethal killing machine may prove to be too much for even the Caped Crusader to undo. And how will Bruce's attempts to bond with his biological son affect his relationships with his adopted wards?
