Catalogue note
Book One of Rafael Grampá’s creator-driven Black Label Batman project and dedicated Noir edition.
Writer: Rafael Grampá
Cover: Rafael Grampá
Edition: Dedicated Noir Edition with black-and-white presentation and unique cover.
Legacy record ID: bat-gargoyle-noir-01
Why this object matters
The dedicated Noir edition provides a purposeful black-and-white presentation of Grampá’s Batman artwork rather than merely a different outer cover. That production choice makes it a useful visual-culture object at 7.5; its long-term influence is still provisional.
Evidence limits: No new physical inspection or collation was performed. Copy-specific conclusions remain limited to the retained catalogue and accession evidence.
