“Courage now, truth always, Batman forever!”
Batman Forever follows Bruce Wayne as Gotham City is shaken by two dangerous enemies. Harvey Dent, now Two-Face, turns his rage into a violent campaign, while the Riddler uses his inventions to strike back at Wayne Enterprises and terrorize the city. As Batman tries to stop both threats, he is also drawn into a new relationship with psychologist Chase Meridian. The story links crime-fighting with Bruce Wayne’s private struggle to live with the memory of his parents’ murder.
