(New DCU: Chapter 4)
Betrayed, buried alive, and shattered by loss in a forgotten age, a brilliant healer uncovers the maddening secret of eternal life and rises as Ra’s al Ghul, forging from the ashes of war the brutal League of Assassins, an immortal brotherhood of killers bound to his ruthless vision of balance. Across centuries and battlefields — from ancient deserts to medieval courts to modern metropolises — he stalks the world for the deadliest warriors, slowly building the mythic League of Shadows as the hidden backbone of the global martial-arts underworld. With every blade sworn, every dynasty toppled, and every epoch reshaped in blood, Ra’s will learn that creation and destruction — like his own soul — blur into one.
