Based on the New York Times bestselling novel by Marie Lu, this graphic novel adaptation brings to life the dark mysteries behind the gates of Arkham Asylum. Nightwalkers are terrorizing Gotham City, and 18 year-old Bruce Wayne is next on their list.

Probably one of the better interpretations.

I haven't read the novel, though I might end up doing so later. However, this is a much better interpretation than many of the previous ones that went grim-dark and decided to be entirely right-wing in their interpretations.

It still has issues, like the perpetual annoyance of not knowing what an anarchist is (unless these are ancaps, who... aren't anarchist). The conflation is even more frustrating when the symbol that the Nightwalkers leave behind literally looks like a Bitcoin logo. Honestly, more people need to stop using anarchism, anarchists, and anarchy as bad guys and realise how much propaganda they've ingested.

This version of Bruce is, at least, a character. He has a personality beyond his parents, he has friendships. But he's still what he's always going to be: A billionaire philanthropist who chooses how to save the city.
