Gotham Central #2
Der zweite Band der deutschen Ausgabe von Gotham Central versammelt die Geschichten aus den US-Heften #7-12. In diesem Arc ermitteln die Detectives des GCPD in einer Reihe von Fällen, die sie tief in die Schattenseiten Gothams führen, während sie sich mit internen Konflikten und der allgegenwärtigen Bedrohung durch den Joker auseinandersetzen müssen. Die Serie von Greg Rucka und Ed Brubaker zeigt den Alltag der Polizei in einer Stadt, die von Superverbrechern heimgesucht wird.
In "Beide Augen zu," Detective Montoya finds herself at the center of a storm when a suspect she arrested sues her after being released on a technicality—only to turn up dead days later, with Internal Affairs now questioning her. As tensions rise and a mysterious photo of her and her lover appears on the office bulletin board, the investigation takes a personal turn. Written by Greg Rucka and Gerlinde Althoff, with art by Michael Lark and colors by Matt Hollingsworth, this gripping issue unfolds with sharp tension and quiet dread. The cover by Michael Lark captures the mood perfectly.
In "Beide Augen zu," GCPD detective Renee Montoya is stunned to find her long-believed-dead brother alive—though not quite the brother she remembers—living in the ruins of Gotham after the earthquake, under the unexpected protection of Two Face, the city’s most infamous criminal. The story unfolds with quiet tension as Montoya confronts the strange alliance between her brother and the man with a split coin, forcing her to question who’s really in control.
In "Doppelleben - Erster Teil," Detective Montoya faces a storm of professional and personal turmoil when a suspect she arrested sues her after being freed on a technicality, while a private investigator linked to the case turns up dead. As Internal Affairs begins to question her, a mysterious image of Montoya with her lover appears on the precinct bulletin board, throwing her reputation into chaos.
In "Doppelleben - Zweiter Teil," Detective Montoya grapples with the fallout of her public outing, straining her relationships both at work and within her family. Tensions flare when she confronts Marty Lipari outside Renee’s girlfriend’s apartment, a moment that takes a deadly turn when Lipari is found dead at home—his killer still unknown.
In "Doppelleben - Dritter Teil" from Gotham Central #2, Detective Montoya finds herself framed after the body of Marty Lipari is discovered with her service revolver as the murder weapon and a half kilo of heroin gone missing—only to be arrested when the drugs are found planted at her apartment. The story unfolds with tense, grounded realism as Montoya’s past and present collide in a case that blurs the line between justice and corruption.
In "Doppelleben - Vierter Teil," Detective Montoya is captured by Two-Face’s men during a prisoner transport, while Josie Mac begins her new role in the M.C.U. alongside Detective Allen. As Josie follows a trail of clues, she uncovers a connection to Inspector Conway that may be at the heart of the scheme.
In "Doppelleben - Finale," Batman teams up with the M.C.U. to track down Two-Face, who’s holding Detective Montoya hostage. With the truth exposed and the villain finally captured, Montoya walks free—but the emotional toll of being publicly unmasked lingers.
