This publication is also known as: Batman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again #1 or DK2 #1. This issue may also be known as Batman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again #1, but the word Batman is not on the cover and most sources list the title of the series exactly a the logo appears on the cover: "The Dark Knight Strikes Again." There are alternative covers on which the logo appear only as "DK2," so this issue may also be identified as DK2 #1.
