Oswald Cobblepot has a plan. No longer content with merely being the crime lord the Penguin, he yearns for the love of Gotham City.

But when chaos strikes, even the best plan crumbles. And when Joker returns to Gotham, chaos comes with him.
Now, with Penguin temporarily out of commission and Batman busy trying to stop Poison Ivy and a group of Joker-obsessed maniacs, a new threat creeps in from the sidelines.

Martyrs and madmen, Marines and magic, murder and mayhem-if Gordon wants to be Gotham's guardian, he must face them all...
