Batman: Digital Justice is agraphic novel published byDC Comics in 1990 in both hardback and paperback forms. It was written and illustrated byPepe Moreno entirely usingcomputer graphics, software and techniques. The story takes place outside regular DC continuity, but is not anElseworlds title.
The book is set in a futureGotham City "at the end of the next century" (the 21st) dominated by high technology, particularly computer networks and their human controllers, long after the originalBatman has died. The story revolves around James Gordon,Gotham City Police Department detective and grandson ofCommissioner James Gordon, who takes on the identity of the Batman to free the city from a sentientcomputer virus crafted by theJoker, also now long dead; and to avenge the death of his partner Lena Schwartz. He is aided by a self-aware computer called the Batcomp, programmed by the late Bruce Wayne, and a robot called Alfred (after Wayne's also deceased butlerAlfred Pennyworth), both residing in theBatcave under a now long-abandonedWayne Manor. Joining Gordon in his new crusade against crime and the city's corrupt government are a teenage street-punk informant named Robert Chang, who becomes the newRobin; and a femalepop music superstar named Sheila Romero (stage name Gata), who becomes the newCatwoman and, while being his adversary at first, eventually becomes Gordon's lover and ally.
