AI Summary
In the latest Batman: Bad Seeds – Gotham Central, Lonnie Machin, known as Anarky, exploits a crisis in Gotham caused by the soon‑to‑be ex‑mayor Poison Ivy. During issue one, Anarky robs a card game run by Triad members, who are linked to the corrupt Gotham City Police Commissioner Vandal Savage. An APB is issued for Anarky after the robbery. The second issue portrays Anarky’s actions as inexcusable, suggesting a shift that could be seen as character assassination.
