As with any rumors surrounding a production such as The Dark Knight Rises, take the following details with a pinch of salt for the time being, but be warned that there are indeed potential SPOILERS AHEAD. For more, be sure to click on the link below to head on over to the original article at Cosmic Book News.

Blake is said to be a new police officer in Gotham City, drafted into the police force as part of a special task force with the sole purpose being to capture Batman. The initiation is a joint implementation between Mayor Garcia and a reluctant Commissioner Gordon.

At the start of the film, the Batman Squad are still on a mission to capture Batman, but when Bane and his mercenaries attack and take over the city, the police force becomes almost none existent.

Those early reports of Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character working with the League of Shadows are false.

Blake is one of the more pro-active police officers who wants to fight Bane's mercenaries, but no police officer will stand up to them after Bane put Gordon in the hospital.

Batman's return, and also Matthew Modine's character, inspire the rest of the force to take back their city from Bane. This eventually starts with smaller attacks on Bane's forces before an all out battle at the film's climax takes place. Batman, with the help of Catwoman, are trying to stop Bane and a revealed Talia al Ghul from destroying the city and finishing her father's work of destroying Gotham.


So, what do you guys make of these details? I have to say, there's some very believable details here and some potentially very interesting hints at what we can expect from the highly anticipated final instalment in director Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. Sound off with your thoughts in the usual spot.
