    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Jeremiah lists off possible aliases starting with "J", including Jack, John and Joseph (all of which are aliases the Joker has gone by in the comics).
    • Goofs
      Jim Gordon having a mustache in his first few scenes and then subsequently not for the rest isn't a goof - he simply shaved it off! His wife even states as much.
    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Alfred Pennyworth: [to Gordon] Yet in the darkness there will be light. That's what you promised Master Bruce all those years ago in the alley. You saved him. Gave him hope.

      [a shadowy figure flies behind Gordon. Bullock notices it]

      Harvey Bullock: Holy mother.

      [Gordon, Bullock and Alfred see the figure looking down at them]

      Harvey Bullock: Who is he?

      James Gordon: A friend.

    Truly one of the best!

    The storyline and character developments were largely spot on! Truly felt like an epic adventure and for once the ending felt worth of the great series before it. Only problem is the series leaves you craving more!
