This story has been accepted into continuity after Zero Hour erased the events of Batman: Year Two from the canon. It follows the events in a few months following Year One and examines an entire year of Batman's career as a crime fighter, so it could be considered a "Year Two"/"Year Three", in some form. Set early in Batman's career a few months after the events of Year One, the story revolves around the gradual transition of Batman's rogues' gallery from simple mob goons to full-fledged supervillains. The series continues the story of Carmine Falcone introduced in Frank Miller's Batman: Year One. The Long Halloween is a Batman storyline by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, published in the limited series of the same name. I believe someday I will make good on that promise. No matter what that evil looks like or becomes.

I made a promise to my parents that I would rid the city of the evil that took their lives.
