Stories

  • The Tower Finale · 20 pages

    With control of Arkham Tower restored and the villains in custody, Deb Donovan gets some of the story behind the incident from Batman and Batwoman. Penguin sends his men to track down Psycho-Pirate, but the Bat team is able to stop them. Mayor Nakano learns from his mistakes, and offers control of Arkham tower to Dr. Meridan, while Koyuki starts to get past her fears.

  • House of Gotham Finale · 10 pages

    The unnamed orphan, now going by the name The Forgotten, captures the Joker and Batman, so he can force Batman to watch as the orphan kills the Joker as revenge for killing his parents years before.

Publisher’s description

The Tower crashes to a close! In the epic finale to this weekly tale of terror, alliances are forged amongst unlikely allies, and the Bat-Family reassess their strategy in their war on crime in Gotham City. Will Psycho-Pirate be Batman’s newest eyes and ears on the streets? Can Koyuki Nakano ever recover from the traumatic events she witnessed? How much fun will the Batgirls have beating the snot out of Penguin’s goons at a seedy motel? The answers await you and much, much more in this cataclysmic culmination! (Except for the Batgirls, I'll tell you right now that answer is "a lot.") As if one dramatic conclusion wasn’t enough, the finale of "House of Gotham" will leave you breathless as Batman is faced with an impossible decision: kill a monster of his own creation...or let others be killed in the process. "Save the patient in front of you" was the advice from Thomas Wayne...
