A dark knight. A man of steel. An alliance this powerful isn't forged overnight.
Told here for the first time is the story of one of the earliest adventures of the most iconic super-heroes in history, and the shadow that its aftermath cast over their partnership through the years — an aftermath of death and its consequences.
Every year since that first team-up, Superman and Batman have met to remember the terrible price of failure, and to make sure that the past doesn't repeat itself. That means accepting each other's very different personalities — and discovering the unique strengths that each of them brings to the never-ending quest for truth and justice.
