### Anarky's Absence

Years ago Lonnie "purged" Gotham by killing big gang leaders and manufacturers and even corrupt cops and politicians.

Prior to his arrest, he became widely known under the identity of Anarky. Breaking out of prison, Lonnie entered Star City to attend other activities of importance.

Lonnie's plan is to purge Gotham and kill those who corrupt it as he did years ago, believing this would save Gotham. An anarcho-communist, he supports freedom and "equality" for all, planning to undo the restraints that have hindered Gotham to its current phase. However, without the efficient resources, he realizes that he is only powerless against the Batman and employs enough firepower to begin creating conflict and stirring up tensions for the Gotham City Police Department, who are completely clueless as to where Anarky has traveled.
