An [[Animesque]] series in the vein of ''[[The Matrix|The Animatrix]]'', ''Gotham Knight'' was produced by a gathering of some of the best in the business, including writers David Goyer and John Olson; animation studios [[Studio 4°C]], [[Madhouse]], [[Bee Train]], and [[Production I.G]]; and voice actor [[Kevin Conroy]] (who reprised his role as [[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman]]).

* "In Darkness Dwells" -- Batman—Batman travels into the sewers of Gotham to rescue a cardinal after he is kidnapped by The Scarecrow and Killer Croc, but after being bitten by Croc, Batman begins to hallucinate, which makes the rescue attempt twice as difficult.
