Summary
In this book about faith and duty， Batman learns that not only does his nobility extend deep within his ancestry but also that some things beyond the laws of science。 When a mysterious package arrives at Wayne Manor， the Dark Knight Detective discovers that he is a descendant of a Grail Knight from King Arthur's court。 Now possessing the Holy Grail itself， Batman must come to terms with the ramifications of its existence while safeguarding the artifact from the denizens of attackers。 Featuring the Penguin， Two-Face， Catwoman， and Ra's al Ghul， this book adds an interesting and provocative chapter to the Batman legend。

2。5 stars rounded up。 A decent couple of Batman stories with distinct and macabre artwork that some people will no doubt love but which did little for me personally。 Decent， yes， but joyless and ultimately forgettable。

This actually collects two different Batman comics， Batman: The Chalice， which was previously collected years ago and Batman: The Ankh。 Both are written by Chuck Dixon and painted by John Van Fleet。Batman: The ChaliceBruce Wayne inherits the Holy Grail from one of his ancestors because the Wayne family is now descended from one of Knights of the Round Table。 So dumb。 Of course， even though it's stayed hidden for 2，000 years， everyone knows he has it。 Enter Ra's al Ghul， Catwoman， Penguin， and th This actually collects two different Batman comics， Batman: The Chalice， which was previously collected years ago and Batman: The Ankh。 Both are written by Chuck Dixon and painted by John Van Fleet。Batman: The ChaliceBruce Wayne inherits the Holy Grail from one of his ancestors because the Wayne family is now descended from one of Knights of the Round Table。 So dumb。 Of course， even though it's stayed hidden for 2，000 years， everyone knows he has it。 Enter Ra's al Ghul， Catwoman， Penguin， and the Merovingians， who from lore are descended from Christ to all try and take it。 There's an abrupt rushed ending as Dixon runs out of pages。Batman: The AnkhAn immortal Egyptian woman comes to Gotham and stirs up trouble。 It's an OK read。 John Van Fleet seems to only paint with black。 The art is so dark and blocky， I couldn't tell what was happening at times。 The art is very static， almost posed。 Other reviews suggest he is painting over photographs which I could see being the case。 。。。more
