Back BlurbThe families will fall by the Gates of Gotham At the turn of the century, three old and prominent families shaped the construction of modern Gotham City, but now a madman with three hundred pounds of heavy-duty explosives and a century-old grudge is threatening to bring it all crashing down. Beginning with three simultaneous explosions of some of Gotham's oldest bridges, the mysterious villain is targeting the holdings and legacies of Gotham's most notable families, including the Waynes. To uncover the truth behind the Architect and his link to Gotham's violent past, Batman unites with Robin, Red Robin and even the Hong Kong operative Black Bat.
