No Man's Land
One of the longest-running story arcs in Batman's history began when Gotham City was decimated by an earthquake. The government refused to aid the broken city, instead declaring it an official ''no man's land'' and cutting Batman's hometown off from the outside world. Rises captures much of the flavor of No Man's Land: Just like in the comics, all the bridges around Gotham are blown up, leading to a citywide descent into anarchy.
