As newly appointed
Commissioner Gordon gave an interview about his relationship with
the Batman, the vigilante took down some thieves. Dr. Thompkins.
introduced Bruce to her friend Rachel Caspian. Bruce was
immediately attracted to her, only to learn that Rachel was about
to take vows to join a convent. Rachel's father, Judson Caspian
returned to Gotham to see his daughter through. Caspian's
alter-ego, the Reaper, also returned to town. The Reaper's form of
vigilantism left dead bodies. Batman's first encounter with him
almost killed the Dark Knight. Bruce took out the gun that killed
his parents (he'd had it since shortly after his parents' deaths)
and began practicing with it. |
