A detailed account of Batman's first year as Gotham's vigilante protector. In his year, he strikes up a relationship with Lieutenant James Gordon and begins to establish himself as a force to be reckoned with. Also making an appearance is Catwoman, in her first chronological appearance. Although the storyline deals entirely with uncostumed villains, the final panel shows James Gordon saying that a man calling himself the Joker has surfaced and he knows just the man to call.
