Gotham City is no stranger to the strange and unusual, but a cult that worships Man-Bat is certainly a new one for the Dynamic Duo!

Plus, Shush continues her quiet reign of terror and horror as both Batman and Robin chase after her. But when a familiar face from Damian’s past returns, will he be able to keep his mind on the mission? All this while Damian struggles to keep his public persona as a high school student up — a big ask for a boy who was raised by the League of Assassins! And what’s this about a possible getaway to Dinosaur Island?!
