Batman vs. Robin

In the past, a young Bruce Wayne learns of a secret organisation called the Court of Owls from his father Thomas, that are lurking in the shadows. After witnessing the death of his parents, Bruce suspects that the Court were behind the murder, but finds no evidence leaving him to believe the Court were just in fact a story. In the present-day, Bruce’s son Damian[N 1] goes out as Robin to rescue a group of missing children abducted by Anton Schott, who has been turning them into dolls. After, a mysterious figure in an owl costume suddenly appears and kills Anton, leaving with a feather behind. However, due to his past violent actions, Bruce blames Damian for his murder prompting him to place security measures around Wayne Manor to prevent Damian from going out as Robin.

The following night, Bruce goes out as Batman to track down the feather leading him to a museum where he is confronted by a group of owl costumed assassins. They eventually capture him and take him to the Court of Owls headquarters where he meets their leader the “Grandmaster”. The Grandmaster offer Bruce to join them but kindly declines with the Court returning him home safely. Meanwhile, Damian manages to escape Wayne Manor and while out, he meets the same assassin who killed Anton, introducing himself as Talon. Talon takes Damian under his wing, training him to become a Court assassin.

Bruce infiltrates a Court headquarters and is taken out by a hallucination gas, but is rescued by Nightwing and Alfred Pennyworth. The Court reject Damian when the Grandmaster discovers he is Bruce’s son, prompting Talon to attack the Court. Talon then kills the Grandmaster, who is revealed to be socialist Samantha Vanaver: Bruce’s girlfriend, while also insisting that she would have done the same to him. Now having control of the Court, Talon leads an attack on Wayne Manor but Batman, Nightwing and Alfred fend them off. Damian escapes the Court headquarters and defeats Talon, telling him he can never be a better father than Bruce. After Talon commits suicide in his defeat, Damian decides to leave Bruce, who suggests he should go to a monastery in the Himalayas[N 2].
