And has changed her name, not to Betty Wilcox, but to Clu. And Anarky getting grabbed by the Arnold Flass, the corrupt and recently-returning-and-back-from-the-dead Gotham cop who was working for Vandal Savage but who may have recently switched loyalties…

And Tim Drake and Duke Thomas, Red Robin and Signal, mopping up, and noting the presence of Gotham City ninja gangs…

  CHRISTOPHER CANTWELL AND MIKE HENDERSON TAKE ON GOTHAM CITY IN THE AFTERMATH OF BATMAN: BAD SEEDS! Anarky rules! Anarky has been given an ultimatum by the Torus: Unify the 100 low-level street gangs not currently under Torus control–or die. If Lonnie Machin succeeds, he'll get a seat at the table. But if he fails, it's lights out for Anarky. His first stop? Gotham's East End–a complete free-for-all for some of Gotham's nastiest and most uncontrollable individuals. Should be simple enough…right? Spiraling out of the pages of Batman: Bad Seeds and Batman comes Gangs of Gotham, a thrilling, action-packed, street-level criminal saga from Christopher Cantwell and Mike Henderson! $3.99 11/4/2026

  (W) Christopher Cantwell (A) Mike Henderson (CA) Ariel Olivetti
  ANARKY CLIMBS THE LADDER! With his place in the Street Demons gang secured, Anarky begins his ascent through the ranks of Gotham's underworld. But standing in his way is none other than Stephanie Brown, a.k.a. Clu, who has her own designs for the gang. In order for each of them to reach their goals, Steph and Lonnie need to either work together or stay out of each other's way–and neither option sounds particularly appealing. Making things worse is the arrival of none other than Damian Wayne! One thing's for certain: bat Blood will be flowing in the streets tonight! $3.99 12/2/2026
• GANGS OF GOTHAM #3
  (W) Christopher Cantwell (A) Mike Henderson (CA) Ariel Olivetti
  RIDERS ON THE STORM! It's Anarky versus Rash for the top spot in the Street Demons. Whoever wins will decide a lot more than just the fate of a single gang–the future of Gotham's East End is on the line. Meanwhile, Steph cuts a deal with Holly Robinson's House that is nearly impossible to fulfill. She'll have to bet everything on Anarky and then some if she's going to make it out alive. $3.99 1/20/2027
