BATMAN: WAR GAMES BOOK TWO collects for the first time the complete epic conclusion of the "War Games" saga that changed the criminal underworld of Gotham City forever! Stephanie Brown, also known as the vigilante Spoiler, has made her former partner Batman's training scenario a chilling reality. The various crime families are leaderless…the soldiers running for their lives while trying to grab a piece of the underworld pie for themselves. Batman is stunned to learn that the wave of terror and death threatening his beloved Gotham City originated closer to home than he ever imagined, and that someone he once trusted is responsible for the carnage. Now the streets are safe for no one. One master criminal emerges from the shadows, taking full advantage of the chaos, and he begins to consolidate the underworld in his grip. The Dark Knight and his allies have failed to contain the violence threatening Gotham City's citizenry. The media have exploited the situation so people think Batman is acting against their best interests.

What no one told him was that he would be turned into a living, breathing, ticking time bomb of a monster that no one can stop. For one hour, Avery becomes the brute known as Damage, with zero control over his actions. After nearly destroying Atlanta, Damage proves unstoppable as he quickly takes down Amanda Waller's Task Force XL and then goes toe-to-toe with Wonder Woman.
