Summary
*Takes place after the events of The Batman movie
I could claim that an unholy spirit possessed me to sit next to a child who just witnessed his parents be brutally murdered, but I know that isn't the case. It was magnetism, like how a compass always points north I knew I needed to be right here. He was a north star in need of someone--anyone--to follow him before he lost himself in the cosmos. When he looks up at me I confirm my suspicion: in his eyes I could recognize the very same vengeance I was trying so hard to control.
or; Dick Grayson has just lost everything; his parents, his Circus troupe, and his own self worth. Batman is just too late to save Martha and John Grayson, but Bruce Wayne is exactly where he needs to be. We see Bruce's conviction to be more than vengeance play out when a broken child becomes his responsibility. Bruce has to not only look after Dick but mentor him off a path he knows all too well. BatCat returns as Selina Kyle comes back to town and investigates her own case. Who is behind the cowl? Unfortunately for her she knows all too well that curiosity killed the cat, if she's lucky satisfaction will bring her back.
