storyline [1] In Istanbul, Batman battled some of Ra's al Ghul's men. He obtained an ancient journal from one of them, describing a man's journey to the "new world" in the mid 1500's. The man encountered Ra's there - he wanted to learn mystical powers from the Native Americans. Ra's appeared and demanded the Detective hand the journal over to him. Batman instead gave the book back to its writer.
[2] A young Bruce Wayne, under the pseudonym Frank Dixon, worked an investigation with Dan Mallory in Chicago.
[3] Tim read an old account of Gotham's first citizens - the city started as an insane asylum.
