DARK GENESIS!

There's a new Batman in Gotham City. His name is Simon Petrarch--and unlike his predecessors, he believes in killing his enemies.  Someone has created a comic book of Batman within the DC universe itself. Bruce Wayne is not too impressed with the origin story, which has Batman making a deal with the Devil to purge this world of evil.
