For the first time in decades, Gotham City stands on the brink of an unprecedented era of peace. With every prominent supervillain and crime lord imprisoned thanks to a historic collaboration between law enforcement and superheroes, the city cautiously embraces newfound hope.

While Batman tentatively prepares for a future where Gotham may no longer need him, a new and insidious threat targets the entire Bat-family, jeopardizing the fragile peace they’ve fought so hard to achieve. With the aid of his allies Nightwing, Oracle, Robin and Alfred, Batman seeks to unravel his foe’s perplexing motivations and tactics, only to find the answers buried in his own past — and future!

As the fate of Gotham City hangs in the balance, a deeper question looms: Can Batman ever truly give up the cowl, or is Gotham destined to always need its Dark Knight?

Forever War is an independent sequel to Gotham Audio Theater’s acclaimed stories Fathers & Sons and The Gray Man of Gotham. Continuing the tradition of weaving together elements of suspense and real-world social commentary, this story boasts a cast of intelligent, multifaceted characters, both drawn from the DC Comics® universe and masterfully crafted by Thomas Oakland.
