Alex Ross won the 1999 Eisner Award for Best Painter for his work on this title.
The second in the over-sized prestige-format tabloid collaborations between writer Paul Dini and Painter Alex Ross, Batman: War on Crime was just as successful as its predecessor, and just as beautiful. Beginning with a two-page origin story, this fully painted one-shot was told in story-book format. Like Superman: Peace on Earth, this story pitted its protagonist against seemingly insurmountable odds, in this case the cruel realities of those victimized by violent crime. A dark tale augmented by a bittersweet glimmer of hope, War on Crime was a tragic glimpse into the life of the man behind the mask.
Collected in The World's Greatest Super-Heroes Over-sized Hardcover or 2010 softcover release.

King kills more Elder Gods by nine than most people kill all day.
From critically acclaimed comic book writer Joshua Hale Fialkov (The Bunker, Echoes, and I, Vampire) and superstar artists Bernard Chang and Marcelo Maiolo (Green Lantern Corps, Batman Beyond) comes a postapocalyptic action/adventure comedy.
King just wants what anybody wants: not to get fired, eaten, or forced to mate with a cheetah lady. For Earth's sole human survivor after the apocalypse, life among Los Angeles's strange new populace ain't easy. Working for the LA Department of Reclamation, King gets a lot of crappy jobs going on quests and searching for artifacts from the old world, which can range from the mythical (Excalibur!) to the absurd (an iPod shuffle—which, let's be honest, was a terrible, terrible invention). The commute can be a real pain in the asphalt, too; the 405 freeway is filled with mutants, monsters, mayhem, and tentacled Elder Gods. And that's all before you hit the horrors of the San Fernando Valley. As the world's freakish inhabitants battle for supremacy, King searches for the seed of life, which may give Earth the second chance it probably doesn't even deserve.
