Can the Bat-Family save the innocent civilians caught in the crossfire? And that’s not the only help arriving on the scene... The boy kicks his plan into gear in ""House of Gotham"" part 10! On a mission to kill the source of his trauma, the boy’s aim squares solely on The Joker and the Batman...two sides of the same coin that have, in his mind, caused him and the city nothing but pain. Plus: Batgirl, a villainous run-in, and another step toward disaster for Jim Gordon!
