History

Overview

"Legacy" is a sequel to "Batman: Contagion, and a follow-up to "Knightfall." It concerns the returning outbreak of a lethal disease in Gotham City, and Batman's attempts to combat it with his closest allies by discovering its origin in the Middle East. There, Batman faces two of his deadliest foes: Ra's al Ghul, who created the virus centuries ago, and Bane, the man who broke him. The Gotham Knights travel throughout the world as they race to stop The League of Assassins from releasing their pure strain of the virus across the globe, and Gotham itself becomes arena for a rematch between Bane and the Dark Knight. "Legacy" is also part of the prelude to "No Man's Land," along with "Contagion" and "Batman: Cataclysm."
