Philip Kane is Bruce’s uncle and after a merging between Kane Chemicals and Wayne Enterprises, he is now in control of the company.
So Red Hood One has “sleeper agents” at hand whenever he may need them. Red Hood One (as the gang’s leader is named) has been using blackmailing, death threats, etc… to people around the whole Gotham City, in all the spectrum of social levels, working positions, etc… A mysterious gangster with a crimson large helmet with a vast “army” of minions. And you will be amazed of how versatile is Bruce’s habilities in the matter.īruce Wayne is returning to Gotham City just to find his beloved city in the hands of the gang of The Red Hood. So, Bruce Wayne is using all the knowledge adquired about disguising and acting to become a faceless (or even more accurate with thousand faces) vigilante. Definitely one of the strongest developed points in the story. And don’t worry when The Batman is appearing in the scene, since Snyder is already in mind how to keep any doubts between Bruce Wayne and The Batman. However, his mission is clear: To avoid that anyone else would suffer the same pain that he endured when he lost his parents at the hands of a robbery.Įven he is keeping in secret that he got back to Gotham City that in my opinion is a very smart move since if Gotham’s Favorite Son is back and at the same time some mysterious vigilante appears, well somebody must do the math eventually. In this Volume #4 Zero Year – Secret City, Scott Snyder is getting back on track after his non-consequential storyline of Death of the Family (at least in my very personal opinion), and he is telling the origin behind the origin.įrank Miller told the first exploits of The Batman in Batman: Year One along with the struggles of James Gordon to fit in the very corrupted GCPD.īut even before The Batman, there was Bruce Wayne and here you will read what happened when he arrived to Gotham City after his training around the world, BUT before of deciding to become something else.īruce Wayne still isn’t a costumed crime-fighter and even the very idea hasn’t crossed his mind. There isn’t anything wrong, it’s just that DC Comics decided to collect certain stand-alone stories in the Volume #6 Graveyard Shift.īEFORE THE COWL, THE MISSION HAD ALREADY STARTED Illustrators: Greg Capullo, Danny Miki & Rafael Albuquerqueįirst of all, if you care to read the explanation of what comic book issues are collected in this edition, you may found odd that it’s beginning on #21, when previous TPB ended on #17. This collected edition features #21-24 from the comic book “Batman”, including “Batman: Zero Year – Director’s Cut #1”.
Before The Batman… there was Bruce Wayne!
