Dva špatní lidé. Dva špatné dny. Dva skvělé příběhy. PENGUIN Král gothamského podsvětí přišel o všechno. Je z něj zlomený a osamělý člověk, bez přátel i bez ranařů. Za všechny své zbývající peníze si může dovolit koupit už jen pistoli s jedním jediným nábojem. Pomocí něj si může prostřelit hlavu… nebo se pokusit získat všechno zase zpátky. S jedním nábojem proti celému Gothamu. RIDDLER Byl to jen obyčejný chlápek. Za bílého dne šel po ulici domů, ale nedošel. Bez jediného slova ho zastřelil Riddler a pak se usmál do nejbližší bezpečnostní kamery. Zdánlivě nesmyslný zločin, ale Riddler nedělá nikdy nic jen tak bezdůvodně. Začíná výslech, souboj mezi Batmanem a Riddlerem, který má odhalit motiv téhle vraždy. Co vlastně Riddler plánuje? V této knize najdete dva uzavřené a temné příběhy zaměřené na padouchy v podání skvělých scenáristů, jako jsou John Ridley (Oscar za scénář filmu Dvanáct let v řetězech) a Tom King (Batman, Vision: O trochu horší než člověk, o trochu lepší než zvíře), a úžasných kreslířů, jako je Giuseppe Camuncoli (Sebevražedný oddíl, Batman: Evropa), či Mitch Gerads (Mister Miracle, Strange Adventures, The Sheriff of Babylon).
