Overview Market Data $118+ Variations 14 Discussion

Poison Ivy was only one of the things Ark M kept locked away, and the next one out is already moving. With the Joker turning his attention squarely toward Bruce Wayne, Bruce takes the rare step of reaching past his small circle and pulling Barbara Gordon in. New alliances form on both sides of the fight, and not all of them will hold.
