Written by Sam Hamm with art by Joe Quinones, it follows an older Batman facing new threats in a Gotham City shaped by the legacy of the Burton films, including the emergence of a new Robin and the return of Harvey Dent.
"Shadows, Chapter One" kicks off a new era of Gotham’s darkest corners, with Sam Hamm and Joe Quinones delivering a gripping, grounded take on Batman’s legacy. When a tragic shootout leaves an innocent dead, Harvey and Barbara team up to uncover the truth—while a mysterious vigilante emerges in Burnside, challenging a gang that’s weaponizing Batman’s name. The story unfolds with sharp tension and emotional weight, all rendered in Quinones’ dynamic art and Ito’s moody colors, setting a powerful tone for the series.
In "Shadows, Chapter One" from Batman '89, Harvey Dent—now engaged to Barbara Gordon—turns his fury on Gotham’s corrupt system, blaming Batman for escalating chaos and plotting to bring down Commissioner Gordon, the man who lets the Dark Knight operate unchecked. The story unfolds in the shadowed streets of Gotham, where loyalty is tested and the line between justice and vengeance blurs.
In "Shadows, Chapter Two" from Batman '89, Batman finds himself at odds with the police after a deadly confrontation leaves an innocent bystander dead. As Harvey and Barbara work to uncover the truth, Harvey takes a bold step by joining a neighborhood council in Burnside, determined to end the cycle of violence. When a gang of impostors claiming to be Batman terrorizes the streets, they're met with resistance from a mysterious masked figure whose true identity remains unknown.
In "Shadows, Chapter Three" from Batman '89, Harvey’s desperate attempt to save Drake leaves him burned and broken, both body and mind. As Bruce Wayne is hailed as a savior for pulling Harvey from the flames, the weight of that recognition only deepens the cracks forming in Harvey’s already frayed psyche.
In "Shadows, Chapter Four" from Batman '89, the fragile peace in Burnside cracks as tensions between police and citizens boil over, pushing Drake to don a new identity in the shadows. When he arrives at Wayne Manor to confront Bruce with the truth—that he knows the secret behind the cowl—his own unraveling begins to mirror the chaos spreading through Gotham. Meanwhile, Harvey’s desperate escape from the hospital sends shockwaves through the city, leaving the streets darker and more unpredictable than ever.
In "Shadows, Chapter Five" from Batman '89, Two-Face executes a daring heist with a plan that tests the limits of chaos and chance, while Barbara watches with cautious hope, believing the man beneath the coin might still be salvageable. Batman mentors Drake as Robin, their partnership sharpening as they race to stop Two-Face before his next move turns the city’s fate on a flip.
In "Shadows, Finale," Batman, wounded from a brutal clash with Two-Face, is pulled from the wreckage by Selina and Drake. With the truth about Bruce Wayne exposed and a damning file in hand, Harvey Dent—driven by a twisted vision of justice—moves to purge Gotham with ruthless finality.
