How does one man change the world?
It's a question that haunts Bruce Wayne like the
specter of his parents, gunned down before his eyes
in the streets of Gotham on a night that changed
his life forever. Tormented by guilt and anger,
battling the demons that feed his desire for revenge
and his need to honor his parents' altruistic legacy,
the disillusioned industrial heir vanished from
Gotham and secretly travels the world, seeking the
means to fight injustice and turn fear against those
who prey on the fearful. In his quest to elucidate
himself in the ways of the criminal mind, Bruce
is mentored by a mysterious man called Ducard in
the mastery of the physical and mental disciplines
that will empower him to fight the evil he has vowed
to destroy. He soon finds himself the target of
recruiting efforts by the League of Shadows, a powerful,
subversive vigilante group headed by enigmatic leader
Ra's al Ghul. Bruce returns to Gotham to find the
city devoured by rampant crime and corruption. Wayne
Enterprises, his family's former bastion of philanthropic
business ideals, now rests in the hands of CEO Richard
Earle, a man more concerned with taking the company
public than serving the public good. Meanwhile,
Bruce's close childhood friend Rachel Dawes, now
an Assistant District Attorney, can't secure a conviction
of the city's most notorious criminals because the
justice system has been so deeply polluted by scum
like crime boss Carmine Falcone. It doesn't help
that prominent Gotham psychiatrist Dr. Jonathan
Crane bolsters insanity defenses for Falcone's thugs
in exchange for nefarious favors that serve his
own devious agenda. With the help of his trusted
butler Alfred, detective Jim Gordon one of the few
good cops on the Gotham police force and Lucius
Fox, his ally at the Wayne Enterprises' Applied
Sciences division, Bruce Wayne unleashes his awe-inspiring
alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses strength,
intellect and an array of high tech weaponry to
fight the sinister forces that threaten to destroy
the city. |
