Hello Readers! I hope you found my weekend post about the new schedule. If not, you're here anyway, so welcome back. From here on out, you can read about my weekly adventures on Monday morning, which I feel is more like prime time for the blogging audience. Enough about that boring business stuff though. I know why you're here! You want to know what I've done this week. Read on to find out.
Read MoreHi Readers! We're changing up our publishing schedule here. From now on, "The Professional Gamer" will be published on Monday mornings from here out. I'll still be composing them during my usual Friday evening time slot, so there will be somewhat more lag in the schedule, but I'm hoping that I'll catch some more eyeballs with the revised publishing schedule.
If anyone happens to have a strong opinion on this, please drop me a line in comments section below.

This means that Two Face, Penguin, Harley Quinn, and Riddler were all free people. They even laid low and crime dropped in Gotham. In fact things were looking great for the citizens of Gotham. Then on Halloween night Scarecrow returned. It started with a small demonstration of fear gas at a diner. Which then lead to a full scale evacuation of the whole city. Now it is up to the Batman to prevent Scarecrow and the other villains from destroying Gotham, and perhaps the country.
