What story started five years ago? It’s about a city, a calling, a Dark Knight hero. Did it end strong?

Who is the daughter of the Demon’s Head? She’s feeling vengeful ‘cause the Demon is dead. Is Hugo Strange’s science insane? The answer is “yes.” The validation is Bane. Is Alfred injured? Pretty much always. Does Barbara Kean shoot from wheelchairs in hallways? Who was the man who caused all that pain? An answer from the shadows: “I Am Bane.”

Who’s the man haunting Gotham’s dank sewers? This killer Croc is more than just rumors. How did Mr. Penn manage to survive? Lax coroners, and a dummy disguise. Is Jane Doe evil? Harvey’s to blame. Does her ivory mask hide more than her name? Will Scarface’s debut get Ed and Pengy talking? They bond over a bullet in this week’s “Nothing’s Shocking.”

Who’s left in Gotham to suffer J’s gassing? He looks like the Joker, but should we remain skeptical? Who else could fall into a vat at “Ace Chemicals”?

(S05E06) Will Secretary Walker conquer Fish Moonie’s bitches? Eduardo needs more than Jim’s “13 Stitches.”

Is Jim’s army buddy a foe or a friend? At least he gives Jim a choice, in the end. Did Oswald chip away at Ed’s moral resolve? He’s not the real problem, but he’s surely involved. Is Hugo a monster? No, but he makes them. Can Bruce change a cat who only wants to condemn him? Is government help Gotham’s promised cure-a? The city’s fate rests on the man from “Pena Dura.”

Who set the bomb that blew up Haven? Ed’s looking grimy and he hasn’t shaven. Was Zsasz the professional we’re seeking news of? He’s guilty of much, just not what he’s accused of. Did Cat kill Jeremiah? Are you paying attention? Will Gotham’s clownish messiah reverse his ascension? Could Jim’s loneliness make Barbara a shoo-in? No matter how it shakes out, the whole city’s in “Ruin.”

Has the GCPD created a Haven? Is Selina a victim? Not any longer. If Mutants are strong, is Catwoman stronger? With the survivor count hovering near zero, who will proclaim that he’s “Penguin, Our Hero”?

Who haunts the park talking to plants? Ivy flusters Bruce as she makes an advance. Can Jim and Harv save kids from Soothsayers? It seems so at first, but there are deeper layers. Will Mother help you? She’ll help you die. Are teeth the secret to her Mother’s Meat Pies? The government sucks, most of all their dispatchers, forcing our heroes to become the “Trespassers.”

What’s happened to Gotham in the months since we vanished? Gothamites cower, defenseless and famished. Will No Man’s Land fall to the criminal element? A flash forward sets a chilling new precedent. With no hope in sight, Gotham finds a hero. You gotta start the end somewhere. Let’s begin at “Year Zero.”
