storyline Since Batman had not been seen in weeks, Gordon asked one of his men to say that they'd worked a case together. As Bruce was released from the hospital, Roy stumbled into the cave. He offered to let Bruce use his body while he was confined to a wheelchair. A witness against Wayne, the man who taught him detective skills, told the cartel that Wayne was indeed Batman. This theory was shot down when Batman made a bust (Bruce was using Roy's body). Bruce and Alfred played with the biochips until Bruce was in a body near Harbinger and Riordan (the cartel's leaders). He got needed info, including a sketch, to Gordon. Harbinger was force to take another body. Batman (again in Roy's body) was after him. They were both killed in the fight; Gordon and his men recovered the documents Harbinger was carrying and cleared Bruce Wayne. Gordon visited Bruce as he recovered and confronted him about his houseguest being in Batman's costume. The fiasco was finally over, though Jeannie, Ducard (the detective), and possibly Gordon knew Bruce's secret.
