The Untold Legend of the Batman #[nn]

In "In the Beginning," the Caped Crusader confronts a chilling mystery when a threatening note arrives with the remnants of his father’s old costume, triggering a powerful memory of the night his parents were killed. As he traces the origins of his crusade, the story unfolds with haunting clarity, revealing the pivotal moments that shaped his path—from his first steps as a vigilante to his early encounters with James Gordon and the criminals who once walked free.

In "With Friends Like These...", Robin joins Batman in tracking down the thief who stole his father's costume, triggering memories of his own origin and early days as Bruce Wayne's ward. As Robin reflects, Alfred recalls his own journey to becoming the Wayne family’s trusted ally, while Batman confronts the shadows of his past—his rogues' gallery, from the Joker to Two-Face—only to narrowly escape a deadly trap set in the Batmobile.

In "The Man Behind the Mask!", Batman grapples with the weight of his legacy as he tracks leads from Gotham’s underworld, reconnecting with Commissioner Gordon—whose daughter’s path was shaped by the Dark Knight’s presence.
