15 years ago Gotham city was rocked by a rising tide of violence and chaos that only ended when Batman fought the Joker in Arkham Asylum. That night the Arkham burned and though no sign was ever found of either Joker or the Batman’s body neither was seen again in Gotham. Time passed and Gotham changed, the crazies and the costumed freaks faded from the city. Nowadays people rarely think about those terrible years when the city was terrorised by masked criminals and when they do many consider Batman as bad as the rest of them.
But all that is about to change, a terrorist claiming to be the Joker has attacked Gotham blowing up chemical bombs in crowded public spaces exposing dozens to the Joker toxin. With the city in chaos and the police seemingly powerless to help you have taken it upon yourself to take up the mantle of the Bat and see that Gotham is once more protected by the Dark Knight.
