I Am Batman #1

In "I am Batman...Begins," Jace takes up the mantle of Batman—not as a legacy, but as a mission—guided by the armor his father designed and the help of Vol. With a clear target in mind, he dives into the streets of Alleytown, tracking down six radicals tied to the mysterious Tyler Arkadine, each planted to ignite chaos between protesters and police. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, blending personal stakes with a city on edge, as Jace begins his journey not as a legend, but as someone trying to become one.

In "Fear State," Batman—now known as Jace—navigates a Gotham teetering on chaos as he investigates the violent anti-police riot in Alleytown. With the Seer manipulating minds and the Moral Authority enforcing their twisted justice, the city descends into fear, leaving Anarky dead and the line between right and wrong dangerously blurred.

In "Fear State [Part 2]" from I Am Batman #1, Jace faces a desperate race against time when the Moral Authority storms the Gotham Juvenile Detention Center to free Morris Caulfield, trapping Detective Chubb, Detective Whitaker, and attorney Tanya Fox in the crossfire. With his mother’s safety at stake, Jace must navigate the chaos and confront the extremists before the city descends further into fear.

In "null," Jace races to uncover the link between Arkadine and the Hidden Agenda, only to be ambushed by a rogue faction of Peacekeepers. Meanwhile, Simon Saint confronts Victor Noonan, the enigmatic leader of the Hidden Agenda, as Lucius Fox unknowingly aids in developing a new armored assault suit. Chubb grapples with the fallout of his decision to release "Batman."

In "Goodbye, Gotham," Jace faces off against armored T.A.L.O.S. operatives in a high-stakes clash that deepens the mystery of his father’s hidden legacy. As Tanya grapples with updates on Tamara’s recovery and Lucius uncovers the truth about Jace’s identity, the weight of secrets begins to shift the balance of power in Gotham.
