Synopsis: - Jean-Paul cuts a deal with 'Tough' Tony Bressi which will lead him to Bane, while Bruce Wayne searches for clues on who kidnapped Jack Drake and Shondra Kinsolving. Bane realizes that 'Batman' is a pretender, and knows that whoever this is, they don't pose a threat. Bruce tracks the kidnappers to Santa Prisca and sets off with an unexpected stowaway - Selina Kyle. Jean-Paul fashions some razor-sharp gauntlets for himself, and uses them to bring down Bird, Trogg and Zombie, but Robin is growing ever more concerned about his methods.
