Feature Character(s):
- Batman (also in flashback to raining with Max Dodge)
Villain(s):
- Riddler (last in Green Arrow Vol. 3 #12; next in JLA #64)
Other Character(s):
- Max Dodge (first appearance; an escapologist and former mentor of Bruce Wayne; also in flashback; dies)
Synopsis: - The Riddler convinces Max Dodge, formerly a great escapologist to create a death trap for Batman; Dodge has little choice - either Batman dies or he does. However, Dodge realizes that Batman is a former apprentice of his and shouts out how to escape the trap. He is shot by the Riddler's henchmen for this, but maybe it's not such a bad thing - he always used to say that 'of all escape mechanisms, death is the most efficient.'
