Has any comics ever told the story of how Arkham Asylum patients/prisoners get out of the prison/hospital? Kind of think it would be hard to escape unless the guards just let them out.

There was one comic, I’m having trouble remembering which one, but it showed Batman going over the new security measures at Arkham and addressing how each of the supervillians (Bane, Joker, etc) would try to circumvent the measures and escape Arkham. I think it might have been an issue of Detective Comics or Batman from the New52 run?

My favorite is during Knightfall when

Spoiler for the start of Knightfall

Bane drops weapons into the outdoor workout area of Arkham from a helicopter, and then makes a hole in the outer wall with rockets.

I enjoyed the Nolanverse Bane, but he wasn’t anything like the level of ruthless evil bastard as comic book Bane.

Yes. Joker and Harley Quinn. Only it’s usually the doctor who influences the patient and not the other way around.
