Following the events of the #1 New York Times bestselling original graphic novel by Geoff Johns, comes the highly anticipated sequel Batman: Earth One Vol. 2! The Riddler has arrived in Gotham and he’s terrorizing the city with his own twisted brand of anarchy. But why is he attacking now, and what is his endgame? The Riddler isn’t Batman’s only problem, as Killer Croc is on the streets and his violent crimes can’t be ignored. Meanwhile, the Dark Knight has trouble reconciling the increasingly conflicting ideologies of Alfred Pennyworth and James Gordon in this gripping re-imagining of the Batman mythology. Writer Geoff Johns and artist Gary Frank bring you Batman as you’ve never seen him before in this thrilling original graphic novel that continues their unique take on the Dark Knight.

The story follows Raymond Wright, who, after a hospital stay, eagerly returns home only to find himself lost in an unfamiliar wilderness after stepping through a mysterious portal. Surrounded by prehistoric dangers like mastodons and saber-toothed tigers, he must navigate this perilous world while evading a search party that is unaware of his true location and time. As his survival becomes increasingly uncertain, the fate of The Janus Project rests in the hands of Dr. Randy Vitek, the scientist behind the time travel experiment.

Dyan Strother offers a unique deal to Deputy U.S. Marshal Robert Mackie: she will help solve the unsolved murder of her friend in exchange for protection. Mackie, the sole available member of The Janus Project, reluctantly agrees, anticipating trouble due to Dyan's rebellious nature. As they delve into the cold case in a small Nebraska town, Mackie discovers that the investigation is far more complex and dangerous than he initially believed, challenging both his skills and their partnership.
