Batman: Streets of Gotham is an American comic book written by Paul Dini, with art by Dustin Nguyen.[3] The series stars Dick Grayson as the new Batman and ties into Grant Morrison's overarching "Batman: Reborn" story and the new Gotham City Sirens monthly.[2] The series ran for 21 issues, from 2009 to 2011.
Streets of Gotham features Batman as the main character, but from a "street level" with other characters providing the main narrative. When asked about the style of Streets of Gotham, Batman group editor Mike Marts explained, "...these are Batman stories told through the point of view of other characters in Gotham City. So it could be Commissioner Gordon telling the story, it could be a villain, or it could be a supporting character telling the story".[2]
The series also includes a Manhunter co-feature written by Marc Andreyko and illustrated by Georges Jeanty.[4] The co-feature was replaced by another co-feature that spins-off of the end of the Manhunter one starring Two-Face. The same occurs with the Two-Face one ending and starting the Ragman co-feature.
