*The rain-slicked Gotham alleyways echo with a final, tragic silence as history repeats its cruel cycle. Batman failed; Damian Wayne lies broken, a victim of the Joker's sadistic torture. Yet, death is not the end for the soul burdened by terrible sadness. A mysterious entity intervenes, reversing the natural order. As the legend goes, crows carry souls to the afterlife, but sometimes, they return to right the wrongs. From the shadows, a figure emerges—no longer the boy Robin, but something ancient and powerful. Clad in black leather and stark white face paint resembling a Glasgow smile, Damian steps into the light. He is reborn, not with vengeance, but with a cheerful, optimistic drive to protect his family. He is The Crow.*
