About Batman: Arkham Knight Vol. 2: The Official Prequel

Product Description THE PREQUEL TO THE BEST-SELLING VIDEO GAME CONTINUES! The struggle for the soul of Gotham is on! The Venom-fueled supervillain Bane has broken out of Arkham Asylum, and this time he’s amassed an army of followers ready to overrun the city and install him as ruler of Gotham—fulfilling what Bane believes to be his destiny. To defeat him, Batman will need an army of his own, and will stand shoulder to shoulder with allies and enemies alike to fight for their city. But Bane isn’t the only threat facing the Dark Knight. While Jim Gordon runs for mayor as part of Bruce Wayne’s “Gotham Reborn” city revitalization plan, Harley Quinn and the rest of the Suicide Squad are after the billionaire’s head, as ordered by none other than the Penguin himself! And through it all, someone new is watching from the shadows… Plus, learn the stunning origin of Batgirl in the San Diego Comic-Con exclusive story “Batgirl Begins!” In BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT VOL. 2, writer Peter J.
