So beginning the series of Batman related posts, I take a look at a comic book mini series that consisted of 5 issues. This series served as a way to bridge the gap between Arkham Asylum and Arkham City and told us about many things that are bought up in Arkham City. This included things like Quincy Sharp's rise to becoming mayor (and believe me when I say it, its the most pathetic of ways as it involves claiming about something he did when it was actually someone else's job), the deal about the siamese twin thugs that got separated and one joined the Joker's ranks while the other joined the Penguin's ranks, Batman becoming a public enemy (which of course leads him to be a prisoner in Arkham City) in the mayor's eyes at least and how Hugo Strange came to power in Arkham City, as well as the purpose of Tyger Security.
Now I read this after completing both games and I honestly think its a good series. It doesn't go into too much detail about the events that happened between the games, but it does manage to address the more important things like the stuff I mentioned above, which will make things in Arkham City less confusing so please do read this before playing that game. 9/10
