Drop the Smoke
Description
Gotham's underworld faces its biggest shakeup in years with the debut of the Minotaur, a new villain who operates like a corporate CEO. Wearing a bull-shaped digital helmet, he has no interest in theatrical schemes. He controls the money.
Batman investigates overnight chaos across Gotham: firefights at the Port, a four-alarm blaze in the Slabs, three businessmen executed in Wolf Hill. The connections lead to something unprecedented in organized crime. Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne pursues Dr. Zeller, their gym encounter providing levity before the investigation takes a darker turn.
