It’s been two years since Bruce Wayne became Gotham’s dark knight, whose sole desire is to rid the city of criminals. His persona as cape crusader frightens the vindictive goons. The narrative transitions when the Riddler begins to murder Gotham’s famous personals one by one, and each victim carries a cryptic clue to the subsequent murder.

Struck by the cryptic clue and the heinous methods of the Riddler’s crime, it’s up to Batman to end the Riddler’s anarchist mindset.
