Billionaire Bruce Wayne has dedicated his life to avenging his murdered parents, as Gotham City’s greatest protector... the Dark Knight known as Batman. Batman's greatest defeat came when the Joker killed Jason Todd — the second youngster to call himself Robin. But now a deadly new player has entered the Gotham underworld: the Red Hood, a gadget-wielding expert fighter who shows no fear, and no mercy. Batman must discover the Red Hood's secret — but is he ready for the shocking truth?
In 1988, in one of comics' most controversial ever stories, Batman fans worldwide were stunned when the Dark Knight suffered a shattering loss... as the Joker killed Jason Todd, the second young man to adopt the identity of Robin.
