Complex

Second of the "Firestarter" Series. A direct sequel to Ignite, Complex follows the events Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight, with alternative-universe undertone, as plot will be manipulated slightly as necessity permits.

It has been a year since Dr. Marianne Lancer took the hand of her best friend, Bruce Wayne, in marriage; two years since the vigilante's Batman and Reacher came to Gotham to defend and protect. The Narrows lost under the sway of Jonathan Crane's "Scarecrow" toxin, Gotham still is slow to recover, and GCPD scrambles to keep the scales of justice balanced in its attempt to subdue the criminal underworld.

New District Attorney Harvey Dent, as hard-hitting on the legal front as the vigilantes are in the shadows, vows to clean up the mob in Gotham; painting for himself a hasty target. Frustrated by the pressure, the mob cautiously enlists the help of a new, psychopathic maniac who vows to not only help the mob get their business back underway, but also kill the Batman, and Reacher.

The fight for justice begins, driving wedges of distrust between the people, GCPD, and masked heroes. As pressure mounts, the people become desperate, and demand the masks be thrown off and identities revealed, driving Batman and Reacher farther apart. It is only when the night is darkest will allegiances be carved out in stone, and love will be tested.

After all, some men just like to watch the world burn.
