Plot
It has been a couple of months since the events of THE DARK KNIGHT. Batman is being hunted down by the police since it is believed that he had killed several people including Harvey Dent, covering up Harvey’s murders.

Like how Batman became a symbol and people began to imitate him Joker has become a symbol with several criminals trying to imitate his methods such as Riddler, Mad Hatter, and the Jokerz gang.

Riddler has been doing a crime spree in Gotham, and leaves riddles at all of his crime scenes. While he and his men are robbing the Gotham Museum of Art Batman bursts in and defeats Riddler and his men. He then secretly calls Gordon and tells him to pick up the Riddler and his men, which he does.

Bruce has been depressed over Rachel’s deaths and has a hard time excepting it. He thinks about quitting being Batman. He is interviewed by the beautiful reporter Vicki Vale about the Wayne Enterprises buy out of the cosmetics company Janus Cosmetics, which is owned by his childhood friend Roman Sionis since it was filing for bankruptcy. Bruce and Vicki gain attractions to each other.

Gordon is having trouble with his department since several officers, including Detective Harvey Bullock, are suspecting Gordon of being in a secret alliance with Batman, and suspect him of being corrupt.

Joker was sent to Arkham Asylum after being caught by the police and the psychiatrist Harleen Quinzel is his psychiatrist. He manipulates her which makes her fall in love with him. Riddler, who is really the reporter Edward Nashton is made Joker’s new cellmate. Harleen dresses up as Harley Quinn and causes a prison break and frees Joker and Riddler and the three run away together.

They are found by a group of Jokerz who try to grab them until they see the Joker is with them and they tell him that they didn’t know it was him. Joker tells them to take him to their base with they do.

In the Joker base Joker meets the leader of the Jokerz who is called Bonk. Joker sees a huge pile of money and says that the Jokerz aren’t about what he is about saying that it isn’t about money. Bonk shouts that even if he is the Joker he is the leader. Joker turns to the Jokerz and asks who they would have lead the Jokerz and they pick Joker who then kills Bonk, securing control over the gang which includes the maniac Mad Hatter whose real name is Jervis Tetch who had raped his work partner who was a blonde haired blue eyed girl named Alice who had said he was as mad as a hatter before he had done it since she had turned down his romantic advances. He was obsessed with the Lewis Carrol story Alice in Wonderland.

Sal Maroni has just gotten out of the hospital in a wheelchair, being told he will be able to walk in a couple of months. He is picked up at the hospital by his right hand man Rupert Thorne. Sal tells Rupert that he plans on bringing the mob back to its former power.

Now Batman must face the Jokerz and the reforming mob along with his own personal demons.

Joker’s back story is similar to The Killing Joke while Harley’s is like Mad Love.

Roman tore the lid of his father’s coffin and turned it into a black skull mask. He then joins the organization of the criminal known as the Penguin, whose real name is Oswald Cobblepot who pretends to be a legitimate businessman as the owner of the Iceberg Lounge.

Batman has been redeemed in the public eye after stopping the Joker again.

Bruce and Vicki are now in a full time relationship. He goes to a party with Vicki at the Iceberg Lounge where he meets Oswald and then the
beautiful environmentalist named Selina Kyle and they share a dance while Vicki is away and she and Bruce have trouble when she sees him dance with Selina.

Black Mask is determined to destroy Bruce and his company any means necessary. He meets with the South American gangster and drug dealer Antonio Diego who was once a wrestler called Bane and wore a frightening mask. Black Mask buys certain drugs for him when Batman breaks in during the deal. Antonio fights Batman in a ferocious battle, and eventually beats him, forcing Batman to retreat.

Bruce broods in the newly rebuilt Wayne Manor about facing this defeat. He has rarely been beaten.

Antonio chooses to stay in Gotham so that he can face Batman again saying that no one else has been as challenging. Black Mask hides his dealing with Antonio behind Penguin’s back.

Catwoman eventually steals precious jewels and information on Mask’s plan from Black Mask making Black Mask call a manhunt on her which Bane does.

Batman one night spots a woman on a rooftop and pursues her and eventually gets into a fight with her. In the end she says her name is Catwoman and flips off the side of the roof. When Batman gets to the edge she is gone.

Batman has to now face the Penguin, Black Mask, Bane, and Catwoman.

I can’t think of a fifth movie right now. I want to hear other peoples’ ideas.

    Great casting! I think Johnny Depp would be a great Joker! I totally didn’t think of that! I like the plot you have except that I think Harvey isn’t dead. I think two face comes back. Other than that, that is great stuff! you should be in Hollywood!
