And then came the Joker. And Rachel died as courageously as she lived in the face of Horror. Her boss and lover, the new DA Harvey Dent, lost his mind as well as his face, sliding into the abyss a young Bruce had narrowly escaped more than once. No one could blame a maddened Dent for going after the mob bosses backing the Joker in a murderous fashion, but even as the Batman reached him enough to prevent him from murdering corrupt law officers complicit in the terrifying crime spree (because killing them shut down the pipeline of information to be gained, an act that would benefit only the criminal chiefs behind them), everyone knew the DA's custodial hospitalization was a gut blow to the city.
But measured against it was two ships of frightened people who refused to partake in the Killing Joke. The story began a groundswell, the 'innocents' connecting with the 'cons' in a bizarre brotherhood and the tendrilling start of communication and alliance about what was needed for Gotham. The Joker's flamboyant psychosis led to public loathing of all loose cannons, seeing danger in anyone willing to put on a 'clown suit' and stalk the streets, for whatever reason. The Bat, whoever he was, had to be as crazy, if not more. He'd beaten the Joker after all, with the city as their private vendetta ground.
We are a DC based board, taking place after the films Batman Begins, and The Dark Knight. We are looking to bring the rest of the DC universe, particularly members of the Justice League, into the world established in those movies. Adapting their histories and powers to a more real world setting. Our plots are ever evolving around our members, both their suggestions and interaction. So if you are looking for a site that loves DC Comics and who's members and staff are always welcoming and ready to help characters get involved then come by and see if you can help bring about
