dbo:abstract | Legacy is a crossover story arc in the Batman comic book series, which is a sequel to another Batman story arc, Contagion and also serves as a follow-up to the Knightfall story arc. The tagline is: "The stakes are higher than they've ever been as Batman and his outnumbered forces race to solve a riddle from the distant past that threatens to erase all of mankind's tomorrow". The story concerns the returning outbreak of a lethal disease in Gotham City, and Batman's attempts to combat it with his closest allies by discovering its origin in the Middle East. The disease is known as the Apocalypse Plague, the Filovirus, Ebola Gulf A, or its more popular nickname: the Clench. An unlikely alliance searches the world for a possible cure including: Batman, Robin, Oracle, Nightwing, Huntress, Azrael, and Catwoman. There, Batman faces two of his deadliest foes: Ra's al Ghul and Bane. The Gotham Knights travel throughout the world as they race to stop the League of Assassins from releasing the pure strain of the virus across the globe, and Gotham itself would be a place for the rematch between the Dark Knight and Bane. Ra's continues his search for the suitable mate for his daughter, Talia al Ghul. Meanwhile, Batman leads the chase for a cure to save the life of Tim Drake (Robin) and prevent the end of the world. The events of this lead into Batman: Cataclysm (though there was a gap of over a year between the two story arcs), which itself leads into Batman: No Man's Land. 1st Edition - 1st printing. Collects Batma n (1940-2011) #533-534, Batman: Shadow of the Bat (1992-2000) #53-54, Catwoman (1993-2001 2nd Series) #35-36, Detective Comics (1937-2011 1st Series) #699-702, and Robin (1993-2009) #31-33. Written by Chuck Dixon, Doug Moench, and Alan Grant. Art by Graham Nolan, Jim Aparo, Staz Johnson, Dave Taylor, Jim Balent, and Mike Wieringo. Batman and his small cadre of allies race against the clock to stop a threat from the past that may wipe out mankind's future. (en) |
