Talia al Ghul has demanded that Damian leave his father and go with her, and Batman seems to agree. Hurt and stung, Damian asks why. So Batman decides to tell the story of his near-death vision... The night in Gotham was suitably apocalyptic. The Joker Virus has engulfed the city, turning millions of citizens into grinning psychopaths. But Damian Wayne, Batman, is on the case, racing a baby with an apparent immunity through a nightmarish landscape to the one building in Gotham with enough security to keep a mad world at bay - Arkham Asylum.
