As we approach the end of the Aftershock Era, things can’t help but to go from bad to worse for Gotham City and its costumed protectors! Hope continues to dwindle… almost as much as the Gotham population! We’re very nearly on “The Road to…”, and boy, this road be bumpy!
Also: We check out the first official mention of No Man’s Land in the pages of Wizard Magazine #83!

In every profession there are those who punch a clock to earn a check and there are those who are dedicated to their jobs. We get to see those dedicated to their professions here. Nurse Brass, Doc Gina’shusband, Bullock, Montoya, Gordon, Batman and Robin keep doing their jobs because they need to be done.
The collapse of the bridge feels like foreshadowing knowing what we do about the way Gotham will be cut off from the rest of the world.
