Quite possibly one of the most vital and powerful single-issue stories of our journey thus far! Today we sit in for a Bat-Family Reunion... the grand unmasking of the new Batgirl, the coronation of a new-new Batgirl... and the first face-to-face meeting between Batman and Jim Gordon since Gotham City fell! If you only listen to one silly marblemouthed No Man's Land podcast this week... it ought to be this one!

Following our recent dips into the one-n-dones, Azrael-land, and Anthologyville... we get a "return to form" in No Man's Land storytelling. A couple of gang-leaders are looking to expand their turf... and, if they gotta break a few bats to do so, so be it! We also bear witness to another big ol' dollop of Gordon family drama. It's definitely a fun one!

Welcome to the one-offs! Today we start our three-episode dive into some... err, "quirky" No Man's Land tales? This time out, Alfred dips back into his Shakespearean "Beagle" mode in order to entertain some NML ragamuffins with his tale of a certain Knight and his loyal Squire.

Batman's (still) back... and he's (still) looking for a way to make a sizable splash in No Man's Land. Lucky for him the Penguin is throwing a hellish Antiques Roadshow soiree that's just asking to be crashed!
