Unfortunately for them, business is literally booming after a jolting "job interview" with Underbelly, a seemingly invincible crime boss who claims to have a hand in the corruption running through every major city on Earth. Traveling to Gotham City to root out society's Underbelly, the armed brothers-in-arms must also contend with a techno-suited Batman that's unfamiliar to Jason, and the Hero Manifesto, a villainous organization looking to follow Red Hood and Arsenal's business model by eliminating the competition. The duo even earns a bonus: facing the self-proclaimed offspring of Gotham City's greatest mass murderer. Collects issues #1-6 and DC SNEAK PEEK: RED HOOD/ARSENAL #1.
