The Dark Knight's fight for justice goes global!
Batman has long fought his war on crime within the dark and twisted
confines of Gotham City. But when he looks beyond the bridges, alleys,
and skyscrapers, the Dark Knight realizes that the call for justice
knows no borders, and there are wrongs to be righted everywhere. When
Bruce Wayne's travels take him around the globe, Batman is there to stop
any wrongdoings that may arise. No matter where in the world he is, he
is always Batman!
