Synopsis: - Shortly after the death of Jason Todd, Batman is called in when a man who loses his job starts shooting people at random from the top of a Gotham building. He is distracted by his guilt over Jason and memories of the day his parents were killed, a day when he argued with his father and, in a childish tantrum, told him he wished he was dead. His lack of focus means he is unable to prevent the sniper being killed by a police marksman.
