Gotham City at night is no place for children, as Batman knows all too well. As the Dark Knight tries to shut down a drug ring that’s turned deadly, Bruce Wayne must contend with a wayward 14 -year-old who’s getting dangerously close to Gotham’s underworld!
Plus, in the backup, Part 1 of the 4-part story “The Barker” — written by Mike Carey (LUCIFER) with art by John Lucas (CODENAME: KNOCKOUT) — featuring the return of a classic Golden Age character! There's been a murder under the Big Top, but once it's clear the authorities will be no help, it's up to the carnies and sideshow freaks to get to the bottom of a crime no one wants to touch!
