Summary
🦇— In the aftermath of Gotham’s flooding and the brutal unraveling of the Wayne family legacy, Bruce is left with more than just a broken city — he’s left with the burden of rebuilding a name he never asked to inherit. Still early in his years as Batman, and even earlier in learning how to be Bruce Wayne, he steps reluctantly into the public eye with a plan to restore Gotham from the ground up.
But just across the river, Metropolis is turning its eyes skyward — toward a man who can fly, who calls himself a hero, and who the world is already beginning to believe in. Bruce doesn’t trust him. Doesn’t understand him. And doesn’t have time for anything outside Gotham.
However when a quiet reporter with keen eyes and a soft voice starts writing about both of them — the hero in the sky and the one at the top — Bruce starts to feel the walls between their cities, and their lives, begin to thin.And maybe, for the first time, someone sees him.
