Batman: The Resurrection of Ra's Al Ghul (New Edition)

Some enemies refuse to stay buried. Grant Morrison (Final Crisis) joins Gotham's greatest storytellers to resurrect one of Batman’s most dangerous legacies.

The shadow of Ra’s al Ghul stretches far beyond his apparent death, leaving behind unanswered questions and unfinished designs. As fragments of his influence resurface, Batman is forced to confront a threat that operates on patience measured in centuries—one shaped by legacy, bloodline, and long memory. 

The investigation draws in Robin and Nightwing, binding the Bat-family together as the mystery deepens. Each revelation tightens the connection between Ra’s return and Damian Wayne’s destiny, turning a globe-spanning conspiracy into a deeply personal reckoning. 

Guided by an acclaimed creative team led by Grant Morrison, Paul Dini, and Peter Milligan, and brought to life by a lineup of defining Batman artists including Tony S. Daniel, Ryan Benjamin, and Freddie Williams II, this crossover unfolds across several core Bat-titles, originally released in late 2007. The Resurrection of Ra’s al Ghul stands as a defining modern event, reshaping Batman’s world and the legacy of one of his greatest foes.
