Horizon Batman/Town of Shadows

[Three people, a man in a suit, a woman in a red dress, and their son, are seen leaving a theatre which is showing the movie "Taxi Driver". They all seem rather happy as they walk out, slowly entering an alleyway.]

Boy

"That was an awesome movie! I wanna be like him when I grow up!"

Man

"Vigilantes aren't exactly the most accepted thing, son."

Boy

"What's a vigilante?"

Man

"A vigilante is someone who doesn't trust the government or police so they decide to fight criminals themselves."

Boy

"Why don't people like vigilantes?"

Woman

"Son, vigilantes are untrained people. They could get seriously hurt or even worse."

Boy

"...What if a trained vigilante shows up? someone who's really, really good at fighting and can drive really fast cars. Will people still not like them?"

Man

<p style="text-align:center;">"Son, they--"

<p style="text-align:center;">[A "click" sound effect is seen as all three of them look up and see a robber, who is pointing a gun at them.]

<p style="text-align:center;">Robber

<p style="text-align:center;">"Money, jewels, everything you have on you! now!"

<p style="text-align:center;">[The man steps in front of his wife and child.]

<p style="text-align:center;">Man

<p style="text-align:center;">"Okay, don't do anything you can't take back. We'll give you anything you want, you can trust me. We--"

<p style="text-align:center;">[The robber is suddenly landed on by a man, who is wearing a cape that flows in the wind. The man looks up at the three, revealing white glowing eyes and horn-like bumps on his head. The man in the suit stares at the shadowy figure.]

<p style="text-align:center;">Man

<p style="text-align:center;">"...Who are you?"

<p style="text-align:center;">Batman

<p style="text-align:center;">"...A friend."
