City of Scars

When the Joker escapes from Arkham and murders the parents of a young boy, Batman recalls the pain of losing his own parents as a child. He is pushed past his limits to the point where his focus becomes revenge on all who stand in his way, including many of Gotham’s underworld. Finally, Batman is forced to look at the psychological profile of his own mind and accept the consequences of his life to find resolve.

While it covers some familiar Bat-territory, I do think it does so with style and grit. I dig that Batman’s voice in City of Scars is so much closer to Kevin Conroy‘s animated Batman instead of Christian Bale‘s gravelly voice in the Christopher Nolan films.
