My Own Worst Enemy

It was literally Batman against more villains than you’d think. He had to take Two-Face to a house outside of Gotham. It was a way for Harvey Dent to become the dominant personality. Seems simple enough, right? We all know it never is. Two-Face offered the money of three crime families to the person who stopped them. After hearing that, Batman wasn’t just fighting Two-Face and some of his worst enemies, he was fighting civilians as well. With that much money at stake, it shouldn’t come as a surprise.

This may not be the deepest of stories, but it’s action-packed. This animated feature would give us villains like King Shark (not the Harley Quinn version), Killer Croc, KGBeast, and so many others. With this many villains coming after them, we get to see Batman pull some tricks and gadgets that we haven’t seen. For example, you haven’t lived until you’ve seen Batman using a chainsaw. It’s a scary sight.

Along with the villains, there’s a new Bat-Family character named Duke Thomas a.k.a. The Signal. He’s unlike any of the other Bat-Family members. He bonds with Batman in this arc. For someone who hasn’t been on Bruce’s team long, he seems to understand him better than most.
