Dva špatní lidé. Dva špatné dny. Dva skvělé příběhy. PENGUIN Král gothamského podsvětí přišel o všechno. Je z něj zlomený a osamělý člověk, bez přátel i bez ranařů. Za všechny své zbývající peníze si může dovolit koupit už jen pistoli s jedním jediným nábojem. Pomocí něj si může prostřelit hlavu… nebo se pokusit získat všechno zase zpátky. S jedním nábojem proti celému Gothamu. RIDDLER Byl to jen obyčejný chlápek. Za bílého dne šel po ulici domů, ale nedošel. Bez jediného slova ho zastřelil Riddler a pak se usmál do nejbližší bezpečnostní kamery. Zdánlivě nesmyslný zločin, ale Riddler nedělá nikdy nic jen tak bezdůvodně. Začíná výslech, souboj mezi Batmanem a Riddlerem, který má odhalit motiv téhle vraždy. Co vlastně Riddler plánuje? V této knize najdete dva uzavřené a temné příběhy zaměřené na padouchy v podání skvělých scenáristů, jako jsou John Ridley (Oscar za scénář filmu Dvanáct let v řetězech) a Tom King (Batman, Vision: O trochu horší než člověk, o trochu lepší než zvíře), a úžasných kreslířů, jako je Giuseppe Camuncoli (Sebevražedný oddíl, Batman: Evropa), či Mitch Gerads (Mister Miracle, Strange Adventures, The Sheriff of Babylon).

Charles Harmon ha mollato tutto – il lavoro di avvocato, la casa, la famiglia – per diventare un hobo, uno di quei vagabondi che attraversano gli Stati Uniti sui treni merci della high line. Ora lo conoscono tutti come Charlie Negro Cervellone. Ormai è padrone di tutti i trucchi che servono per sopravvivere dove non esistono né legge né morale. Sa come destreggiarsi tra bande rivali, trafficanti di droga e criminali di ogni genere. Deve trovare Corina, la nipote del suo amico e maestro Walt: a diciassette anni, è scomparsa senza lasciare tracce. Come molte sue coetanee, affascinata dai racconti dello zio, la ragazza è partita alla ricerca della libertà, e forse di sé stessa. Si è persa chissà dove, lasciando solo una foto vecchia di un paio d'anni. Ritrovarla in quella giungla è un compito impossibile: anche perché ben presto sulle tracce di Charlie si mette una banda di neonazisti. Inferno solo andata ci trascina in un viaggio emozionante e sconvolgente, che corre veloce come i vagoni sugli infiniti rettilinei del West. Con il sarcasmo e la crudezza del suo stile inconfondibile, con una prosa ritmata e acuminata, John Ridey ci fa conoscere un'America sconosciuta, nera e maledetta: un mondo parallelo, dove non esistono certezze e la vita è appesa a un filo troppo sottile.
