Summary Our hero is both in his element and out of his mind as he hunkers down in the Batcave with The Question and Huntress for a fear toxin training session. Never mind the long-awaited arrival of the rhodium chloride, a chemical compound with supposed antitoxin effects: Batman insists on honing his mental and physical agility on the juice before ingesting the untested treatment. Meanwhile, in an abandoned warehouse across town, another creature of the night is awakening to a pair of attendants: Catwoman's former employers have become her captors. Riddler emerges from the shadows to toss some bored malice her way, but it's Scarecrow who seems most affected by his partner's blasé attitude. Riddler's casual approach is making Commissioner Gordon uneasy, too. Riddles arrive on his desk, but their content hints at a waiting period, as if biding their time for a catalyst-for a bite from the Bat. The only one biting, though, is Harvey Dent. Eager to redeem himself after his bout of criminal insanity, anxious to win both his upcoming case and reelection as DA, Dent pumps Gordon for an inside scoop on the latest provocations from Gotham's villains. Gordon, though, withholds information from Dent, a resurrected but fragile ally. The Commissioner needs a confidant with dependable sanity, or at least one capable of ethical insanity. Back at the Batcave, the Dark Knight attempts both.
