Now the second half of that legendary story arc — BATMAN #613-619 — is collected for the first time as a softcover in BATMAN: HUSH Volume 2. This volume contains the stunning conclusion of "Hush" featuring the Dark Knight's shocking showdown with the Joker, the debut of a brand-new Batmobile, a catfight among Catwoman, Talia and Lady Shiva, and, perhaps, most surprising of all, the true identity of the enigmatic Hush! Plus, this collection includes the 6-page story from Wizard #0 and features a stunning new cover by Lee & Williams! 1399483 1 11 2004 Batman: Hush, Vol. 2 total:935|5:267|4:340|3:235|2:75|1:18| 935 3568 1081 49 3 1 false false Thu Sep 04 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Sep 06 06:34:06 -0700 2008 Sat Sep 06 06:41:28 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon May 04 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat May 02 22:02:32 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 13:43:48 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Nov 08 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Tue Mar 24 14:53:38 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 30 02:39:09 -0700 2009

But yeah, if you liked Volume I, you should like Volume II. The set up is so good in Volume I that the ending works in Volume II.
