Batman, despite being in his late 50s, continues to fight crime with a new high-tech uniform. In the rescue of a kidnapped heiress, Batman suffers a mild heart attack and, at the risk of being beaten to death by one of the kidnappers, is forced to betray one of his old oaths by using a weapon to protect himself. Finally, Bruce decides that his time as Batman is over and vows "never to" act like a hero again, shutting down the Batcave. At that time, his allies (Alfred Pennyworth, Commissioner Gordon, Lucius Fox, Leslie Thompkins, Renee Montoya and Harvey Bullock) died of natural causes or retired. His partners (Dick Grayson, Barbara Gordon, Selina Kyle and Tim Drake) are still alive and aging, losing touch or having disagreements with Batman after also retiring as heroes. All your enemies (Joker, Harlequin, Penguin, Two-Face, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, Riddler, Crocodile, Gunman, Clay Face, Mad Hatter, Cold Lord, Bane, Ra's al Ghul, Human Bat, Firefly, Hugo Strange, Ventriloquist & Scarface) or are retired, imprisoned, exiled or dead. Batman also severed his ties to Superman and the Justice League. The story progresses 20 years later, until 2039, in Nova-Gotham, a futuristic megalopolis, with towering skyscrapers and flying vehicles.
