"Bruce Wayne ne part de rien. Il n'est pas le descendant d'un riche empire de Gotham City, il est le fils d'un professeur d'école publique qui, enfant, a vécu l'horreur inimaginable d'une fusillade, changeant à jamais la trajectoire de sa vie. Sans ressources illimitées pour le financer, sans manoir ni majordome pour s'occuper de lui, Bruce est devenu un Batman d'un genre tout à fait différent, à la fois cérébral et ultra musclé, vivant dans les quartiers les plus difficiles et les plus défavorisés de Gotham, loin de la haute société. Et alors que le gang de Black Mask sème la terreur dans la ville, il n'hésitera pas à déchainer un torrent de violence contre ses adversaires pour que le message soit clair : il y a un nouveau Batman en ville."
