The Bat-Man: Second Knight #3 p.43 - Final Confrontation with Maxie!

NOTE: These pages measure 16.5" x 21", slightly larger than twice-up size!

This pivotal original art page offers a rare, chilling look at the Bat-Man as a master strategist! In a scene that redefines his relationship with the Gotham underworld, the Dark Knight chooses to keep Maxie "on the board" as a reluctant informant, establishing a brutal new status quo for 1939. Mike Perkins utilizes haunting, vertical panels to create an intimate, psychological cage for Maxie, culminating in a cold warning about the "line" he must never cross. The artistry is peak Perkins: the high-contrast rendering of the Bat-Man’s cowl against the gritty, detailed architecture of the Gotham fire escape is iconic. This isn't just a confrontation; it’s the moment the Bat-Man truly takes control of the city’s criminal element. For a collector, this page represents a crucial narrative beat, blending classic noir tension with the tactical brilliance that defines the World's Greatest Detective!
