Ra's Al Ghul always seemed to be a Batman villain with a lot of potential. This collection was not the definitive, ultimate Ra's Al Ghul tale I thought it might be.

He knows that Bruce Wayne is Batman, he is the leader of powerful assassin groups, and he can be revived from death or serious injury by using his "Lazarus Pit," implying that he may outlive Batman. However, Ras would actually like Batman to replace him and take his beautiful daughter Talia as his wife. So the relationship ... Read More
