Absolute Batman #3 by Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta continues to show a different Batman making different choices courtesy of different circumstances. A Bruce Wayne without means, while those around him are making megadeals. With Harvey Dent looking into such a deal with the redolent phrase "Ark M Fund"

Each having their own designation and location. Including the one for Gotham.
With freelance MI5 operative Alfred Pennyworth recommending a practical and pragmatic deal to work with Black Mask… with his eye on the long game.
