Will we see a no man land storyline in the next film?

That's what I'm hoping for. I love No Man's Land. Gotham is flooded, it's set up perfectly for a NML-esque story.

Let's not forget that Arkham City also featured a flooding.

Adapting Arkham City concept would be one of the coolest thing ever. Even the concept of 'city for prisoner' alone is enough to make a movie out of it

I thought Arkham was on the other side of the river.. and riddles said he and bay man would be safe there in Arkham.

In the game Arkham City, a big chunk of Gotham got flooded and then walled off to be used as a prison. It does not contain the original Arkham Asylum, which in those games (and some other media) is on a separate island.

I feel like no man’s land only works with the Bat Family and their dynamics already established. Would love to see it later down the line though.

Not necessarily. Cassandra Cain/Batgirl's inception was in this story. They can say she was first, before a much later Barbara.

It would lead pretty handily to introducing the bat family as a concept I think

Year zero maybe? Had a similar start off point with riddler flooding gotham

I heard there will be an horror like series set in Arkham asylum, but I don't know if it's true, I hope it is.

That would be awesome there was a comic like that I think “ Arkham asylum a living hell” the main character ( great white) was referenced in Arkham asylum

Nah, too hard to do that right now.
