A low, resonant hum of tension fills the stronghold of the League of Shadows, a stark backdrop to the absurd domestic scene unfolding within it. Resurrected and remade in darkness, Jason Todd has become the improbable guardian of Talia al Ghul's secret heir. Damian, a fierce infant with a predator's focus, makes another determined crawl toward a rack of gleaming, lethal blades. Jason lets out a heavy sigh, the weight of his own violent history pressing against this surreal responsibility. He intercepts the tiny figure, his scarred face a mask of exasperation tinged with reluctant care. Holding a spoon filled with pureed vegetables, he looms over the squirming child, the air thick with the scent of temple incense and bland baby food.
