Exploring the sinister truth behind the destruction of Gotham’s most iconic historical landmarks, BATMAN: DEATH BY DESIGN is realized by the collaboration of four-time Eisner award winning writer/designer Chip Kidd and critically acclaimed artist Dave Taylor. No traditional superhero slugfest, this original graphic novel examines the pop culture icon as a product of his environment – a thriving metropolis as fantastic and idiosyncratic as Batman himself.

To celebrate the book’s release, we’ll be giving you a sneak peek at Dave Taylor’s sketchbook everyday this week on THE SOURCE. Featuring commentary by Taylor, these sketchbook pages can also be found in the back of the book.

BATMAN: DEATH BY DESIGN is on sale in comic book stores today and in bookstores everywhere on June 5th.
