All of the news networks in Gotham have suddenly been taken over by a pirate broadcast, announcing that at midnight that very night, millionaire industrialist Henry Claridge, will die. Forced on the case by Commissioner Grogan, newly-made Captain James Gordon secretly works with Gotham's caped crusader to stop the madman who plans to perpetrate a sinister scheme that could threaten the entire city. Based on Batman: The Man Who Laughs by Ed Brubaker and Doug Mahnke. The second installment of a Batman saga primarily based on Grant Morrison's Batman run.
