The mysterious Red Hood returns to Gotham with a vengence! Former Robin Jason Todd parted ways with the Batman over their vastly different approaches to crimefighting. Eventually, Jason trained himself to be a killer and a mercenary, and he took on a new identity and code name--the Red Hood--in order to strike his own brand of fear in Gotham's criminals. And now Batman must confront old wounds in an effort to stop the masked vigilante Red Hood.
