Na uzavřené oddělení Arkhamovy léčebny pronikne neznámý pachatel, který vězňům podá nebezpečné sérum, jež jim propůjčí nadpřirozenou sílu. Tato síla jim umožní překonat bezpečnostní opatření a uniknout do ulic Gothamu. Batman se musí spojit s policií, aby zločince chytil, a zároveň vypátrat původce tohoto ďábelského plánu. Čelí silným protivníkům, jako jsou Two-Face, Scarecrow a Bane, a musí si přizvat pomoc od přátel z Ligy spravedlnosti. V úvodním svazku nové série The New 52 Universe, který překládají David Finch a Paul Jenkins, se čtenáři setkávají s temným příběhem plným záhad. Z Arkhamovy léčebny se dostalo cosi neblahého, co obdařilo chovance démonickou silou, a ti se nyní snaží vyvolat chaos v Gothamu. Temný rytíř se snaží obnovit pořádek a odhalit pachatele, zatímco se musí postavit nejen svým obvyklým nepřátelům, ale i tajné organizaci Soví tribunál a záhadnému Bílému králíkovi, který se snaží Batmanovi nastražit léčku. Ne vše je však takové, jak se zdá…

Hromadný útěk z Arkhamovy léčebny je pro Batmana jen začátkem nové noční můry. Záhadné sérum extrémně posiluje superpadouchy včetně Two-Face, Clayface a Deathstrokea. Kdo je však tajemný Bílý králík, který je neustále před Temným rytířem jakoby o krok napřed? Na pomoc přijdou Superman, Flash a Wonder Woman, ale bude to stačit, když sám Batman začíná přicházet o rozum? Obsahuje sešity série Batman - The Dark Knight (NEW 52) #1-8 (září 2011 - duben 2012)
