FOX TV has lit the Bat-Signal on Gotham's season two premiere date and plot.

The Batman prequel series will debut its sophomore season on Monday, September 21 at 8:00 p.m. ET. The second season will see stars Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) and Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue) return for more stories set during Gotham City's years before The Batman.

Along with the premiere date, FOX offered a brief tease into the second season's plot, which you can read below.

"The stakes are higher than ever as GOTHAM explores the origin stories of some of the most ambitious and depraved Super Villains, including The Riddler, The Joker and Mr. Freeze, and Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) uncovers more secrets from his father's past, in the Season Two debut on Monday, Sept. 21 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT)."

A young Joker, huh? That kid is bound to be pretty twisted.
