- Sometime during this issue, Batman battles and loses the man called The Red Hood who would later become The Joker as shown in flashback in Batman: The Man Who Laughs.
Solicitation:
- Batman's nailed down by the Gotham City police in a crumbling building with nowhere to run! It'll take his arsenal of skills to get out of this one while proving he's on the side of justice - but how can he when they're gunning so heavily for him? Plus, Catwoman debuts in part three of "BATMAN: YEAR ONE"!
