Amid a fraternity's blackface party and a police brutality scandal, Gotham City is introduced to a new super-criminal. This mysterious figure goes by Minstrel, and while he uses The Joker's motif and tactics, he has crafted his own identity and MO. Reclaiming blackface minstrel imagery, Minstrel's crimes serve as retaliation for anti-Blackness throughout Gotham City. Surely the Caped Crusader and his allies will defeat him, but what lasting impact will he have on Gotham City?

Equal parts pastiche and parody, A Maroon in Midnight Blue uses the mythos of the Caped Crusader to explore themes of the Afro-surreal. Recommended for fans of The Killing Joke and Endgame, but also Invisible Man and Beloved as well.

Call him psychotic and cruel if ya want, but to me and my mom, he's sweet as coconut cream bomb pie! My crazy momma and daddy were locked up by Batsy when I was ten years old.

On and off again, my parents broke out of jail and returned home til I left home and my mom was sent to Belle Reve. I made a name for myself in the dark underground of Gotham at the age of eighteen making my parents proud of their psychotic little girl, all the scum and villains knew who I was then one day lead to me being caught by Batsy and his little bat family then shipped off to Arkham Asylum Prison where I'd find him!

BATMAN: Black Mirror by LadyChronicle

"He's exactly like me - it's like looking in a mirror...and my reflection is cracked." ~Bruce Wayne A new darkness the likes of which the criminal underworld of Gotham City has never seen before since the rise of the Joker, stalks its streets every night. No crime escapes its sight and no one, innocent or guilty, is safe from its rage. It feeds and grows from shadows, becoming stronger with every sinister thought, every action and drop of spilt blood. It is a creature born from tragedy - but to Bruce Wayne, it's a mirror image. BATMAN: Black Mirror is an interconnecting tale of two people who come from different places in life, yet meet in the middle to reflect opposite sides of the same being. What would've happened to Bruce after his parents' murder if he didn't have Alfred to comfort him? What if he was left to fend for himself with no one to care? What choices would he have had to make in order to survive and would his already suffocating darkness grow deeper and mixed with an endless need for violence and revenge. These are the questions Bruce constantly asks himself, but they become more profound when he meets a young orphaned Eli sitting before the Wayne's graves. He's not like other children and it disturbs Bruce that the child seems to perfectly reflect the darkest parts of his soul.

When Worlds Collide by fosterfoughtgod

Book 2 of the 'Demigod in Gotham' Series When Nico moved to Gotham, all he wanted was to do good. He never asked to be adopted by Bruce Wayne. He never asked for Slade to come after him. He never asked to die. And more than anything else, he never asked to be revived. ---------- "I excused what you did with Slade, but you cannot continue to break rules and put yourself at risk-" Nico laughed. "Excused? You excused it?" Nightwing approached the table, probably knowing where this was going. "Demo-" The demigod ignored his brother. "Slade wanted to sell my people as slaves. Not only did he deserve to die, but he needed to." Bruce stood up, his hands on the table. "Slade's death was not your call and I respected that-" "No, you were forced to accept it because you couldn't stop me. You wanted me to spare him, just like every single one of your sons have up until that point, but how did that work out? When did Slade ever face justice for all the things he had done after they spared him? He deserved to die for everything he had done!" "It is not our place-" "Then thank f*ck that it actually was my place to do what you never could!" Bruce clenched his jaw. They stared at each other for a long moment before Bruce finally said, "We fight for justice, not vengeance. If you allow yourself to sink down to that place, you may never come back. It will kill you if you keep on fighting to avenge things that have not even happened yet" Nico stared at his father, the rage that had been boiling underneath his skin every second since he had woken up back in November began to break through the surface. He took off his domino mask and tossed it onto the table, making sure that Bruce had to look at his eyes-- the ones that no longer resembled the fourteen year old that Bruce had once asked to join his family. "Good thing I already died then." --------- daily updates @ 12:15 am EST (starting April 8th )
