Summary of the Book
Gotham belongs to the Batman. No criminal dares mess with him. He watches over it like a silent guardian. Not one of the maniacs who ravage Gotham’s streets have managed to get to him. Not the Joker, not Penguin, not Scarecrow. However, there’s a new player in town. He goes by the moniker of Bane. He strikes fast, he strikes hard. Batman can’t seem to zero in on his operations, nor on his location. Who is this Bane and where did he come from? Batman finds himself slowly depraving himself of sleep or any modicum of rest as he tries to keep the city safe. To add to his problems, this Bane seems to possess some super-steroid called Venom, one that makes him stronger than most men. Soon, Bane breaks open Arkham Asylum, letting loose all the crazy criminals that Batman helped lock up. Putting them away once again will take everything that the Dark Knight can muster, and once he is done with them, what chance will he stand against the might of Bane?
