get into this video I don't think you want to hear me rambling anymore he was once the greatest mind the world had ever seen his fuse with the detective are things of Legends he has held off those who thought his mission of saving the world was it stream he has trained others to follow in his footsteps Raz Al ghoul begins to cough as he looks at himself in the mirror telling himself that he is now just an old man with nothing left to but before we could even finish that thought he hears shouting from within his Palace in Nepal he grabs his blades stalking into the Shadows to find his daughter Talia and Grandson Damian in the courtyard sparring he sighs in relief as he watches for a bit but then his cough comes back and this time the blood is on his hands he stares at the blood remembering what his mother told him the Lazarus pits they are cursed after a few moments of thinking Roz looks up at the moon and says that it is time back over in Gotham Batman stops my black gate to stop an overzealous lockup from abusing prisoners when he gets a call from Oracle he tells him that there is something on the news that he needs to see she's sending him the feed now Batman pauses for a moment to watch and then Whispers this this is impossible the news is reporting that both Raz al Ghul and Talia al Ghul have turned themselves in but before he does Roz would like to make a public statement before his arrest Batman hurries over to the markovian embassery in Washington DC revaz will begin making his public speech and as he watches over things Damien appears telling him how kind of you to show up father Oracle tells Batman in his ear that he needs to patch things up with Damien give him a damn hug Bruce and Batman thinks about it for a moment but then asks why is Roz doing this because they believe that this is the right thing to do father once they are safe the two of us can talk until then stick to the mission Roz takes to the podium telling everyone good morning I have had many names the one that I have chosen is the one that you all know Roz al Ghul the Demon's head some of you might find it hard to believe but I have lived thousands of years I have seen much of what the world has to offer good and bad now our world is hurting dying and for the last hundred years I have blamed mankind that the world would be better suited with fewer people within it that was a way of thinking that only led me to gain more enemies to defeat and recently I have realized the value in people for too long I have kept the secret that has allowed me to live this long life it is time that I gift the science of the Lazarus pits to the world you will have me I would like to share with everyone all that I have learned to save our future at that moment at that very moment there's a single bang Raz is shot in the head across the way Deathstroke lowers his rifle and starts shooting again hitting Talia tossing a few grenades Batman rushes and shouting what are you doing but if some of the grenades go off Deathstroke holds up another switch you can either stop me or make sure Razo ghoul still has a body to go back to the Lazarus pits the grenade next to Ross begins to beep as Deathstroke presses the button and as Damian hears it he begins to run towards his grandfather as the grenade goes off Batman swings in grabbing Damien before he can also be caught in the explosion as they are swinging away Damien is shouting we can still save them father but Batman doesn't and Roz's body is turned to Ash as Batman let's go Damien hits him again asking why didn't you let me save Roz Batman tells him we were out of options and I made a call Damien hits him again damn you you always find another option that's what Batman does why Batman holds him because you're my son damn it and Damien steps back telling him that he has now lost two grandfathers because of his choices Batman looks at his son if I was the one that was there I would have saved Alfred Damien stopped staring back at his father for a moment this guilt trip being sent by his own father something that he has been dealing with for over a year now and he turns to leave with no words to Batman who calls out I I didn't mean it I didn't Damian puts on his mask yeah you did I'm gonna go find Deathstroke and bring him in dead or alive without your help later back in Nepal the League of Shadows brings Talia home to get her ready for the pit battalia stops them telling them no not this time fetch me a doctor and then send out a call tell our League of Shadows to come home for once in my father's life he tried to do the right thing a plan that he hoped to save the world and he was killed for it it is time to set aside our petty squabbles our unfortunate conflicts to accept this Mission as a favor to me was Al Ghul is gone but his shadow will live forever with us the demons Shadow from the darkness we will strike in a way that the world has never seen Deathstroke his family and anyone who has ever worked with him or tries to protect him we will kill them all later in zandia a Deathstroke Incorporated a deadline tells Prometheus what are we supposed to do we can't trust Deathstroke Slade wanted to turn the secret society into something big and he attacks the AL ghouls when I find King Deathstroke I'm going to and Deathstroke walks into the room what what are you going to do deadline asks what the hell you're making moves like that without telling anyone Deathstroke grabs them by the collar holding out a knife how dare you question me in front of my son deadline turns to the monitors look it's all over the new watches for a moment at himself that is an imposter I haven't worn that armor in years and their fighting style is familiar someone is setting me up we need to prepare for a but at that moment there's an explosion of the League of Shadows attacks and the woman in charge shouts death to Deathstroke foreign the next story in this crossover is Batman 122 over in Washington DC Batman Begins to comb through the crime scene as director Cameron Chase size stating that the great Raz algul gets assassinated by Deathstroke on her watch and not only that Talia and Deathstroke Got Away Batman doesn't respond as he activates devices that recreates an image of the scene moments before it happened Chase asks if he cannot do that high-tech stuff she'd rather not watch someone get shot in the head multiple times even someone like Roz Batman looks around how did Deathstroke get past both your security and my satellites no one should have gotten in or out without either of us knowing Sheila begins to laugh oh you don't know wait do I know something that even Batman doesn't know Batman leans in close how did Deathstroke get into the location just outside of the city limits Chase shows Batman a giant hole dug into the ground that leads back into the city where they just were and he asks how could no one have seen this before it would take a large tool to get this done Chase tells him that her team hasn't had a chance to look for any evidence yet so he gets first dibs to see if Deathstroke left them anything Batman looks at the ground activating a scanner he didn't but that is far from a really problem it took me seven seconds to reach death's joke if he wanted to kill someone chances are that he will so did he purposely Miss killing Talia he could have taken as many shots as he wanted in those seven seconds meanwhile back in zandia at Deathstroke incorporate its headquarters Prometheus fights back some of the League of Shadows this is a lot of ninjas what the hell a death joke tells him I know some of them they're totally Al ghouls people they must be here for Revenge deadline jumps in telling Deathstroke that he and respawn need to get out of here he can hold off a bunch of the Ninjas but as Deathstroke does begin to make his Escape deadline fires into the group asking and who are you supposed to be and the woman leader cuts through telling him that she is the Angel breaker deadline shoots are telling her I've never heard of you she tells him that the Demon's Shadow doesn't want to be known cutting straight through him once the floor is cleared Angel breaker gives it Detonator the call to take out the entire building and he does so with pleasure I've always hated Deathstroke on another floor Deathstroke and respawn are fighting their way through but Prometheus tells them you know what see you later boss and Deathstroke yells out to him you're a coward but then he notices something coming from another building that is coming their way he quickly grabs a respawn telling him we gotta move he jumps out the window as a rocket shoots by blowing up the entire upper half of Deathstroke incorporated as the two of them get to the nearby rooftop respawn is asking what now and Destro tells him something I've never wanted to teach you to do how to hide at this exact same time ravager his daughter is sitting in a bar as the news is playing the event of what is going on with her father killing Roz she'd groans stating that that's going to bite the family in the ass later and at that moment a group of men will walk in you look a bit young to be in here ravager asks what you want to see my ID suddenly there's a series of hits and cracks and she hears a voice you left without saying goodbye Damien walks up I need your help your father crossed the line Destro killed my grandfather and I need to know why his actions could ravager grabs her sword telling him to save it come on let's go kill my dad but while the league and Damien get to work Batman flies to the Demon's Palace and really doesn't hide his presence there the Assassin surround him telling him that they were waiting for him and without a word Batman Begins to attack there's a whirlwind of fists and Slash as Batman takes down the entire group with ease Talia walks up you could have gotten in here without any of my guards seeing you always want to make a show of everything and without a drop of blood spilled impressive a waste of skills but impressive Batman throws the blades I'd take him that you would know all about making a show you hired Deathstroke to kill your father and wound you so no one would suspect that you're the Mastermind behind all of this Talia looks at him with a cold stare I am grieving over the death of my father and you come here to make accusations after everything that we mean to each other I expected more from you Ros was many things a false martyr doesn't seem above him my father tried to do things the proper way and look where that got him so no I did not hire Deathstroke to kill my father Deathstroke has been working on his own Empire over the last year I expected conflict but Slade just pulled the trigger first and where is our son searching for Deathstroke Talia takes a swing but then stops in pain as her stitches begin to pop open wait you didn't use the Lazarus Pit I don't trust them right now as if you'd care Batman looks at her again I never wanted to see you get hurt and she pulls it down her cow you're the only one I'd allowed to see it my beloved Batman tries to speak but Talia tells him to shut up and kisses him the next issue in the crossover is Deathstroke Incorporated issue number eight Angel breaker now has the League of Shadows trying to pull information out of one of Deathstroke's members Raptor but it doesn't matter because Raptor doesn't know where Deathstroke is while they are continuing their assault on Deathstroke's Empire he and respawn have quietly sneaked into the underground tunnels of San Francisco as Deathstroke pulls off his disguise respawn books around the underground hideout asking why here of all places Deathstroke tells him because the Titan brats had a headquarters here made restocking a lot easier however that isn't important right now what is is who set me up and why well Deathstroke begins to work at the computer respawn notices several Titan mannequins set up as targets and throws a throwing start one of them hitting it in the chest and calling back nice right Deathstroke tells him that that's cute and then throws five stars hitting each mannequin in the head and respawn tells him yeah that's cool I guess at that moment the mannequin's heads explode respawn yells out whoa that's awesome maybe I need to have one eye like you too respawn holds out a knife close to his face with Deathstroke telling him no you can't be like me anyway that is enough for discussion we need to focus on what's going on right now afterwards we can return to your training meanwhile back at Nepal Batman and Talia are sharing their kiss with Batman stopping I can't Talia pulls herself away telling him that it was a moment of weakness I must have lost more blood than I thought Batman pulls back on his mask asking why was Roz trying to turn both himself and her in Talia says that she doesn't know why but Roz has been rejecting the Lazarus pits his mind was the clearest that it's been in centuries Batman thinks for a moment stating that there is something that he is missing then why would Roz reject the pits and Talia tells him because of Damien their son finally showed Roz that his legacy would live beyond him that someone could change for the better at that moment Angel breaker walks in dragging Raptor telling them I hope I'm not interrupting anything I humbly return without death's joke but I do bring a raptor since he's also a member of the demon shadow after being thrown down Raptor sits up hey Dark Knight your kid did a real good number in that whole death tournament thing Batman stares at him what death tournament Raptor stands up oh I'm just making everyone mad today all right listen I know she's pissed about her old man but this Killing Spree isn't going to help anyone find Slate what are you talking about Batman demands to know and Talia explains that she's sent the demon shatter to find Deathstroke and kill him and any of his associates Batman steps between them straight up and forming Talia I will interrogate Raptor no one needs to die that angel breaker holds out her sword I will make him speak after kicking Angel breaker's sword from her and telling Talia to call the demon shadow off the rest of the Shadows begin to surround Batman Talia looks at him straight in the eyes have you ever known me to do what you have told me to do Batman quickly takes down some of the assassins and makes a path for him to escape but his Angel breaker starts to follow Talia tells her to let him go leave Batman to his own hunt and follow Raptor since he slipped out after all these theatrics rafter will try and warn Deathstroke but just as Talia thought Raptor messaged Deathstroke letting him know that tally is pretty p.o'd and has people looking for him it would only be a matter of time before someone in the secret society gave up his location oh in Batman's after him too stay hidden and stay safe as the call ends the lights go out and Deathstroke says no one knows about this place how did they but the Secret Door begins to open and his respawn gets ready to attack his sickle is knocked out of his hand and he's kicked back into the wall respawn shouts out how but then a voice tells him payback's the pain huh Damien and ravager walk in and they tell him you know the rest get ready to pay Deathstroke next up the storyline moves into Robin issue 13. with ravager leading Damien to Deathstroke's secret hideout the fight between the pair erupts before any real discussion could be had Deathstroke yells out I can't believe you led the bird brat to me and ravager shouts after what you've done it was the least I could do Deathstroke spins back hitting a button on the wall asking did you really think I didn't plan on people funding me the wall opens up revealing The Hideout is now lined with a box before anyone could do anything they all began to explode above ground Deathstroke is helping respawn out telling him that explosions like that won't take out a cockroach like Damien or even his sister for long if the brat is here then his father won't be far behind as Deathstroke climbs onto the building Damien leaps in my father is the least of your worries you killed Razo ghoul as Deathstroke tries to explain that it wasn't him respawn gets ready to help his father when ravager kicks him down you can stay out of this Deathstroke defends himself against Damian you need to listen I didn't kill Roz I was set up respawn shouts is true I was with Deathstroke the whole time we were never at the embassy and Damien pauses why should I trust you respawn begins to take off his mask telling him because I'm him sort of Damien stares at respawn someone who looks almost identical to himself no this is a trick from Mother's Soul respawn tells him it's not bro now did you get it this is why I hate you on the island I hated you a bit less but Damien pauses again did my mother respawn tells him no Mommy Dearest never knew about me no one did I was created by Grandpa I'm a mix of Talia al Ghul and Slade Wilson Roz made me to run his Twisted tests because he knew that mother would never let him do them to her actual Son Deathstroke takes off his mask see this whole family is messed up Damien paused us for a moment and then Smiles I I have a brother respawn throws his sickle not for long the two go back and forth dodging each other's attacks of the respawn yelling you had everything mother and father's love and you never appreciated it you're just some arrogant little punk and even then people loved you the two land a blow on each other's face but as they get back up Batman jumps in that is enough he looks at respawn and sees the same thing that everyone else has seen wait what is this who are you Deathstroke steps in at that moment this is my boy and Damien explains that Roz created respawn in a lab he's a mix of Talia al Ghul in slate Deathstroke goes on that should explain a few things that I didn't kill Roz I should have but I didn't at that moment Destro gets a call from Dr Moon but as the projection appears Angel breaker appears with her sword at Moon's throat well well well we found Deathstroke lady Talia is going to be so pleased Deathstroke asks moon what the hell is this and moon tells him that they caught him and he can take the torture but they said that they were going to kill phobia Angel breaker informs him that that's right they will and it would be in Deathstroke's best interest to come to Nepal so that he can face Talia directly so that they can resolve this whole thing Batman tells her that she can tell Talia that he will make sure that Deathstroke is brought to Justice call off the and Joe breaker tells him that it is all up to Deathstroke is he coming or does Dr Moon die Deathstroke goes silent an angel breaker tells Merlin to do it Batman yells for her to wait but Merlin releases his arrow shooting Dr Moon and the back of the head Angel breaker laughs I'm going to die next tata for now I could have stopped book tells them that they both knew that even if he if he turned himself in Talia would still kill the society speaking of Talia was the one who set up the hit why aren't you going after her is it because only your people are in danger what kind of hero is Batman if he only saves good people Deathstroke throws a grenade down to the street and people begin to gather around the hole that it created Batman and Damien leap down to save the people while Damien gets the people away Batman grabs a hold of the grenade with his grappling hook whipping it over his head and down into the giant hole created before even though they saved everyone Batman and Damien find that Deathstroke respawn and even ravager have escaped Damien tells Batman I I believe him not Deathstroke but respawn he's protecting his father he isn't lying because he knows what I do if he lied but Deathstroke didn't kill grandfather Batman tells him someone is playing a very dangerous game who would kill Roz and why Damian we should work together on this I have failed you many times and I know it but let's solve the case together what do I have to do to prove that we can do that Damien swings up to the bat jet telling him you can start by letting me drive but while we search for the real killer who's gonna watch over the secret society Batman tells him don't worry about it I called in some backup elsewhere as Prometheus is being attacked he finds himself getting cornered when suddenly hook and razor burn are taken down Prometheus turns wondering who it is and ghost maker tells him don't worry you're under the production of Batman Incorporated the cell block was just as loud as it's always been in blank Kate but a guard cuts through the noise calling out to one of the inmates that his lawyer is here the guard drags the man out of the cell and the man says that those bogus charges aren't going to stick and if he sees them again they're gonna regret it the man is thrown into the meeting room with the lights turned out Batman and Robin step out as Damien says that they're from Batman and Robin LLP Batman slams The Man onto the desk and Damien asks if this is even the right one Batman says that a few months ago the Justice League encountered a crew of fake deathstrokes who are working for the Royal Flush Gang this is way too much of a coincidence and the man yells I ain't talking to no bat guard let me out but Damien politely asks his father can I be the one to interrogate him the man then says I ain't afraid of no punk kid what are you gonna ah okay I'll talk what's the matter with you Damien tells him I I didn't even touch him and the Man simply responds whatever listen the Royal Flush Gang hired me to pose as Deathstroke and gave us cash for the costumes they sent me to a tailor in Central City his name was gambi but here's the thing there was another guy he wasn't with us but he was also getting a Deathstroke costume a pretty boy looks familiar but I can't quite place his face the costume that he got was special he wanted the classic look but this guy he was not a happy camper anger radiated off of him like the room was shaking it was scary and with the new lead Batman and Damien head over to Central City but on the way there Batman asks Damien about the death tournament that he was in Damien doesn't respond but instead stares at a reflection of respawn in the window Batman asks again but Damien tells him sorry I didn't hear you I was thinking about respawn it wasn't the first time that I've had to deal with a clone but there's something about him something that's different I want to help respawn the same way the rest of the family helped me a few moments later the two drop into Gandhi's warehouse and sneak in through the secret passageway but as they walk Damien says that there's something about the tournament that he wants to tell him father I sort of have a girlfriend now Batman looks over his shoulder what but in doing so he trips the alarm as The Hideout security turns activate Batman tells Damien to run they begin to dodge flamethrowers energy guns regular guns and Damien says that he would like it known that he isn't the one who set that off the two barrel through the door at the end of the hallway and it's there that they find ganby's place has already been destroyed by someone Batman sees gambi's body on the ground and says that he isn't dead just heavily tranked Damien tells him that that doesn't sound like Slade none of this does this might not be about Roz at all this is about mother and Deathstroke someone wanted a war between Talia al Ghul and Deathstroke a voice calls out the boy is smart but if he's as smart as I remembered you guys would have stayed out of this and let me do what you couldn't Batman and Damien look up at the Imposter Deathstroke was I right you knew what would happen if you killed Raz Al ghoul The Imposter jumps in this war will stop when Slade Wilson is truly punished meanwhile back in Washington DC Deathstroke looks out and says damn he turns back to respawn and ravager okay you can come out now and ravager asks who is he talking to destroy Gales whichever one of Batman's Sidekicks is watching us come on out Hood from Batman Incorporated steps out I am not a sidekick but how did you know Deathstroke says that as much as they would like to think they are they're not as good as Batman now tell the boss I want to meet I know who killed Roz Hood tells him first Batman is on our boss and right now Batman is following Elite so anything you have to say to him you can say but at that moment a throwing star is thrown into Hood's shoulder and the demon Shadows around everyone shouting death to Deathstroke everyone tramples over a hood as he asks why is he being attacked and one of the Ninjas tells him we're here to kill Deathstroke and his associates including those who would protect him Deathstroke spawn and ravager jump off of the building to escape running into the next wave of ninjas except the next wave has guns instead of katanas Deathstroke manages to punch one grabbing a hold of another telling him if I die he dies too and the captured ninja says my life means nothing I live to serve the Demon's head long live the Demon's head as all of the Ninjas their guns respawn throws himself in the middle telling Deathstroke to get down but before Deathstroke could tell him no the ninjas opened fire ravager fights through the last Ninja on her side but as she rushes over to where her father is she slows down at the sight before her no no no no no no no Deathstroke is holding respawns a body repeating to himself not again not a gun not again the next story in the reading order is Deathstroke incorporated number nine as Batman and Damon have used the clues to figure out who the Imposter Deathstroke is they now find themselves face to face with the man himself when he arrived at the tailoring shop of gambi of Central City everyone stares at one another with Batman asking who are you you must realize there are consequences for your actions The Imposter asks what exactly is my crime I've removed a dangerous man from this world a man who has attempted genocide for hundreds of years Batman asks if that's the case why don't you take credit for the death the Imposter tells him because his mission is not yet complete Talia and Deathstroke need to destroy each other but as the Imposter is speaking Damien notices that he's trying to hide an accent I could sense that he knows us but no one that I trust would ever wear that costume The Imposter tells him yeah well I followed your orders once it never did me any good then and it certainly won't now at that moment the Imposter pulls at a gun opening fire but Batman quickly throws a pair of batarangs to disarm him the Imposter turns charging through a wall but rather than hitting the wall he somehow birthed through it the damage to the building causes enough of a Tremor to start bringing down the room so Batman quickly grabs gambi in the two dots the incoming debris the dust begins to settle Batman finds another hole like the one that they found outside of Washington DC Damien watches him examine it and asks him what is this is there more to this case that you're not saying do you still not trust me enough father but Batman continues examining and not answering Damien meanwhile back at Batman Incorporated headquarters ghost maker and the others are trying to keep what they can of the secret society locked down but everything just seems a bit too quiet at that moment there's an explosion but instead of talia's assassin storming the building it's Deathstroke everyone prepares for a fight but ghost maker says that this is just a distraction the real Target is the secret society who have already escaped ravager leads to the group telling them to remember no killing they just need to get out of Gotham but to make sure that the others don't interfere Deathstroke stands between Batman Incorporated and ravager daring ghost maker to make the move Deathstroke tells him I'm surprised we've never met I've heard stories about you and ghost maker tells him I've heard some of you as well always thought you were a bit overrated a lot of talk but not enough walk but what do I expect from a guy who usually goes after kids Destro grabs his sword swinging at least I'm not a low budget Batman the two go back and forth with swings managing to get a slight hit on one another until ghost maker kicks Deathstroke into the Next Room the rumors were true you're getting slow in your old age as ghost maker walks up to finish this battle he sees the Deathstroke is actually gone seconds later Deathstroke grabs clown Hunter and holds a gun to his head this year boy I had a boy but I've lost so many kids because of you so-called Heroes really I need to stop letting children play dress-up ghost maker steps forward telling him let the boy go or so help me Deathstroke grabs breaking one of clown Hunter's arms you're fast but is the boy's life worth proving how good you really are ghost maker stops dropping his swords Bratman would finally cross the line if I let clown hunter die Deathstroke shoves clown Hunter towards ghost maker congrats kid someone cares about you but before leaving Deathstroke pulls out a small switch activating it within seconds the entire building begins to explode and ghost maker says I am so building Batman for this as they begin to escape clown Hunter asks where did Deathstroke even go but meanwhile over in Nepal Angel breaker reports that she had spoken with Black Canary she rejected their offer they currently have no lead as to where Deathstroke could be but they're still on the hunt Talia says very well but for now we will take few precautions starting with this one she walks up to Mother's Soul telling her that Roz is dead that he was killed and mother soul looks up I knew it the prophecy is coming to pass Talia Scots I am done listening to you I've kept you here as a favor to my father but we will return the witch back to Lazarus Island as Talia leaves a pair of her assassin's report that a Bat Plane is in route should they allow it to land Talia tells them yes my beloved has come to his senses Batman is going to bring back my son direct everyone to greet them but as the hatch to the Bat Plane opens death's joke charges in with ravager and his secret society in an all-out attack next up in the reading order is Robin issue 14. with everyone pouring out of the jet Deathstroke calls out to everyone to slaughter all of them just leave Talia al ghoul to me as talia's assassins Begin to Fall members of the Demon's fist begin to retreat stating that they offered to help Talia out of Honor but they refused to die here before long Talia stands with only angel breaker as her last line of defense but as Angel breaker tells her that she needs to leave Talia tells her no I do not run especially from Slade Wilson the man who murdered my father and industrial conforms her that wasn't me but we're way past that now your boy toy is most likely not far behind either but he's not going to make it in time Talia draws her blades telling him I do not need Batman to kill you meanwhile not far off Batman gathers up ghost maker and the others from Batman Incorporated after being targeted by Deathstroke in hopes that they might be able to stop an all-out war between the secret society and talia's League of Shadows but as they prepare to fly in with their gliders Damien notices that he is the only one without a glider too dangerous for you and Damien shouts will I forever be a small child that my mother has left in your doorstep is this still about Alfred pennyworth you said if you were there Alfred wouldn't have died Batman pauses for a moment what I said before that was cruel and not what I meant I should have never left to Gotham when Bane took over I shouldn't have left you in a position where you felt you had to save Alfred alone Alfred's death was never your fault that is why you need to stay behind because I need to know that you are safe father you're going to have to trust me whether you want to or not Damien turns jumping out of the ghost stream without a glider or parachute in Batman quickly jumps after him Damien watches the battles below but Batman catches them to land safely fine we need to find Deathstroke this land shortly after they all prepare themselves to jump into The Fray but a voice calls out hey KOA Bear seeing New York with Batman is really disappointing ghost maker stops turning back to see Angel breaker with her sword already raised and he asks what are you doing here angel breaker tells him old friends and loyalty are often our weaknesses the ghost maker scoffs two or never that's loyal she screams as she charges into fight and Batman and Damien comb through the area to try and hopefully stop Deathstroke and Talia from killing each other as Damien gets ready to turn a corner a ninja gets ready to strike down when suddenly he is cut down by ravager Damien looks at ravager with disgust can't believe that you chose to work with your father over me and ravager says that after what his mother did to respawn she had to help Damien is confused baffled by the statement what are you talking about ravager pulls off her mask asking do you not know response dead talia's ninjas killed him just like they killed Hood Batman overhears this I'm sorry for your loss too many have died over this charade it needs to stop Damien let's but as Batman reaches out for his son Damien smacks his hand away don't I don't need that not from you let's go find Mother inside of the palace Deathstroke and Talia deflect each other's attacks and Deathstroke asks do you know what your old man did he created a clone of us a boy Talia slashes at his arm my father's experiments were of no concern to me and Deathstroke kicks her back shouting I wanted to help the boy but you took it from me right now I'm not going to kill you I'm going to torture you I'm gonna make you watch as I kill Batman and then your little bastard she screams as she lunges back in her anger getting the best of her as the Deathstroke readies his attacks delivering a punch that knocks her down he reaches down picking up Talia by her hair you were close to surpassing Roz a few times right you were the leader of your own Empire hell even Batman was afraid of you but you always failed in the end the river chasing that Dragon aren't you Deathstroke swings his sword with Talia catching it in her bare hand I am not chasing any dragon I am the dragon and that brief moment she takes out one of her daggers thrusting it into Deathstroke's chest ripping the blade out Deathstroke falls to the ground and Damien runs in no he isn't the one who killed grandfather ravager walks up asking he my father is dead Batman also stunned at the sight what have you done and a voice tells him what you should have done a long time ago The Imposter Deathstroke walks out my real Hope was that they would have both died Talia grabs her blade I killed the real Deathstroke I certainly can kill this imposter as a sudden Rumble throughout the palace and the Imposter looks at Batman you should be proud I waged war on the Shadows to get what I wanted Talia asks what did my family ever do to you The Imposter begins to pull away the costume destroy occurred to my family but you hurt my country the people of markovia need that Prince to avenge them they need geoforce and you will all die today or on Natalia you decide and now we go to the finale of The Shadow War Shadow War Omega everyone stares down at the one behind it all the one who killed Roz al Ghul the one who set up the war between Talia and Deathstroke geoforce begins to use his powers and Batman yells what are you doing talk to me geoforce tells him you know what the Deathstroke did to my family what he did to my sister seems like everyone forgot about Tara and the Teen Titans but I didn't no one can even stop death's joke but I had to if I could no longer be the hero of markovia I'd be the hero of the world Raz al-gul Talia Deathstroke they all needed to be taken down years ago now just stay out of my way so I can finish this at Batman Batman tells him that would not be Justice then geoforce is now Furious just just then Angel breaker breaks through the wall shouting that all of the remaining demon shadow ignore the secret society and Batman Incorporated they need to protect lady tongue as Angel breaker lunges in with her sword geoforce turns pulling apart the ground and bludgeoning her with stone more rocks begin to pull up in geo4jos if I cannot have my home neither can you Prometheus tells the others to get Deathstroke and leave but ravage your shout to asking where are they going with my father as some of the foundation is torn apart the palace begins to crumble blocking everyone's Escape forcing them to make high jumps off of the palace walls but before they jump a bat plane flies in close and Black Canary tells everyone that if they needed a ride they should have just called everyone jumps down onto the plane and Black Canary takes off but geofor's watches you have forced my hand the ground below begins to split as fiery eruptions shoot into the sky the explosions then hit the plane causing it to spiral out of control as it begins to crash land everyone slowly begins to pull themselves out of the wreckage Batman asks how did you know that we were here Black Canary tells him well Angel breaker asked me if I could help kill Deathstroke and I said no but that really didn't stop me from following just needed some help getting out here is all as Black Canary is filled in about everything that happened a thunderous voice calls out to Talia that her Judgment Day Has Come and for her crimes the al Ghul line ends here the ground begins to shake as the Rocks begin to come together forming a giant Stone Golem with his massive fist geo4 swings down separating everyone but as it begins to rain rocks down Batman is struck in the back knocked off balance another Boulder begins to hurdle towards a but Talia leaps into the air cutting through it before it can hit him he tells her thank you but she tells him not to look into it our son has lost enough Batman then starts to look around asking where is Damien along the side of the giant Golem Damien is beginning to scale up the Golem's arm telling geoforce stop being a coward and hiding behind your rocks the head opens up coward who said that I was hiding geoforce Rings more Stones down Damien dodging them continuing to climb I did when you disguised yourself as Deathstroke geoforce shouts back that he had to watch his country burn because of his mother a piece of evil fun with my people but in the end I know that my choices were righteous Damien fights his way through the barrage of rocks pelting him it doesn't matter you've killed people your actions led to the death of others people who never had a chance to change you dare call yourself a hero Heroes don't kill he launches himself as he gets closer delivering a powerful kick to geoforce's face causing him to lose his connection to the Golem The Towering figure begins to fall apart and Batman leaps in grabbing Damien before a boulder could land on him Damien asks you caught me and Batman tells him always ravager then says that the Father's son stuff's gotta wait this isn't over yet talia's holding her blade to geoforce his neck if I so much as feel a Tremor I will end you geoforce coughs what what I'm supposed to beg and Talia tells him no there will be no mercy today Batman gets ready to step in but Damien stops him let me you're my family just as she is just trust me Father Batman stares silently for a moment and steps back letting Damien Take the Lead Talia grits her teeth this man killed my father and Damien says because of your actions but he is far from innocent grandfather earned his death in the end he believed that our family could do something better but Roz also believed that he needed to pay for his actions first that we all must pay mother Talia shakes her head this man has done so much damage to our lives I don't even know why I'm so upset Damien looks at his mother again because you saw that he wanted to change and right now you have the choice to live by grandfather's final wishes or to end this yourself Talia struggles holding the blade debating the choices and throws it to the side turning to hug Damien geoforce sits up no no the demon line will send hovers his arms in stone Talia kicks back yelling that was for my father and their story comes to a close with the curtain falling geoforce is taken into custody by Chase while ravager tries to look for where the secret society may have taken her father's body Angel breaker escaped with the remains of the demon shadow and Talia honored what her father set out to do turning herself in as her Batman and Damien Batman knows that he has a lot of work to do to make up for being well Batman Damien too knows that he also could have made better decisions but right now Batman isn't worried about any of that he's more worried about this death tournament and his son having a new girlfriend Damien turns laughing in Oracle radio's in that killer moth is back teamed up the Firefly this time should she call it Nightwing or the Batgirls Batman smiles and tells her no not today this one calls for Batman and Robin and there you have it the full story for Batman Shadow War now I actually really liked the storyline and the ramifications of Ron's al Ghul being dead and Deathstroke being dead I thought would last longer than they did the weird part is Deathstroke comes back to life immediately after this in dark crisis I'll link that down below that's the next event that came right out of this event it's dark crisis Razzo ghoul seemingly isn't alive yet but in the Donna DC there's a very heavy implication that he is going to be revived from the dead right now he's kind of like a force ghost talking to people that's happening right now in March of 2023 so if you're watching this video like years down the line he's probably already alive and back out there kicking it anyway guys I hope you enjoyed today's video check back every Monday for another full story but then check back every other day in the morning to see all the other videos that are coming out thank you so much and I will see you next time right here at comic
