Summary: When Joker and Riddler go to war, will Gotham be collateral damage? The Joker and The Riddler would seemingly be natural allies, but early in the Dark Knight's career, each man determined that he and he alone must be the one to kill the Bat . . . and either would sooner burn down Gotham than be beaten to the punch line. In the untold story of one of the darkest chapters in Batman's backstory, all of Gotham's villains must choose sides in a battle of wits that soon turns into full-blown warfare -- complete with casualties. In the War of Jokes and Riddles, only one side can claim victory . . . but the scars it leaves will shape Batman's future as he makes the most important decision of his life.
