Summary
For some unknown reason, Bruce was transported to the world where his counterpart is a retired vigilante called 'the Batman'. The 'Gotham Knights' (as Bruce knew of them) try to make sense of this version of their father and the all fatherly actions they are allergic to.
How would the Knights solve this inter-dimensional problem if their brain short circuits every time Bruce gives them free and open affection? And could this 'problem' actually be a solution in disguise?
And how will the Knights in their world cope up with a Bruce, who not only know who they are, but fights better than four of them combined?
A Gotham Knights x Death of a Hero Crossover story! :D
