  • #113 – The End
    May 1 2019
    (S05E11-12) "THEY DID WHAT?" and "THE BEGINNING" - What story started five years ago? It’s about a city, a calling, a Dark Knight hero. What comprised most of our thrillin’? The heroes were nice, but we loved the villains. Did it end strong? As good as we’d hoped. Will we ever forget Riddler and Penguin tied up with rope? Some moments were weak, but most were quite awesome. We’ll never forget the Legends of Gotham.

Pretty much always. Does Barbara Kean shoot from wheelchairs in hallways? Who was the man who caused all that pain? An answer from the shadows: “I Am Bane.”
