The city is overrun by Jokerized victims, but a small band of teenagers unites to take a stand. Their secret knowledge of Gotham City’s streets helps them survive, but will Batman take help from this young group of upstarts? And what could it mean for the future of the young heroes in Gotham City?
Summary of Stephness: Spoiler is called in to help a group of four teens (including Anarky) rescue his mother. She is well equipped and filled in by Batwoman, and declares that wanting to help a mother is all she needs to know to help someone out. She quickly takes on a leadership position, and is fangirled by Riko, one of the other kids. Thanks to her help, Anarky's mother is rescued, and a new future dawns for Gotham's teenage vigilantes.
Behind the Scenes: This issue serves as a back-door pilot approach to the then-forthcoming We Are Robin series. It introduces Dax, Dre, and Riko, three of the six main characters from that series, as well as the n52 incarnation of the Robin adversary Anarky. It also solidifies Spoiler as a continuing presence in the post-Flashpoint continuity, and indicates she is in communication with Batwoman, Harper Row, and Red Robin.
