Kevin Patrick Smith (born August 2, 1970) is an American filmmaker, actor, comedian, public speaker, comic book writer, author, and podcaster. He came to prominence with the low-budget comedy film Clerks (1994), which he wrote, directed, co-produced, and acted in as the character Silent Bob of stoner duo Jay and Silent Bob. Jay and Silent Bob also appeared in Smith's later films Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks II and Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, which are set primarily in his home state of New Jersey. While not strictly sequential, the films have crossover plot elements, character references, and a shared canon known as the "View Askewniverse", named after Smith's production company View Askew Productions, which he co-founded with Scott Mosier.
The Caped Crusader has seemingly perished during a tragic mission, finally bringing peace to the city of Gotham. But as a new wave of crime begins to rise, the city is once again plunged into danger and despair, and the people cry out for a hero. Timothy "Jace" Fox, the grandson of Lucius Fox—a trusted ally of the original Caped Crusader—dons the iconic cape and cowl to become the new Batman. However, his claim to the mantle is not readily accepted by his peers. As old and new enemies emerge, Jace must prove himself worthy of the title of the Dark Knight and protect Gotham—along with the legacy of the hero who came before him.
