November 2001
After witnessing his parents’ murder as a child, a dynamic and isolated Bruce Wayne returns to Gotham City following years of worldwide training. Wearing a makeshift hockey mask, a near-fatal fight with a pimp forces him to question his crusade—until a bat crashes through his window, inspiring his dark new identity. As Batman battles corrupt cops, the Roman’s mob, and a cunning Catwoman, Captain Jim Gordon fights to clean the GCPD from within. After Gordon’s daughter is kidnapped, the unlikely allies corner Falcone. The year ends with a madman’s evil grin on a speedboat, hinting at a far greater menace to come.
