Storyline Julian Day, aka Calendar Man, was taken down (again) by Batman and Robin. Being his third offense, he got the maximum. He blew up in the court room and was sent to Arkham Asylum.
He escaped when Bane blew the place up, only to be apprehend by Power Girl. This time, he was sent to Blackgate. When the earthquake hit, he escaped. He was taken down by GCPD and returned to Arkham. He was put under radical therapy - placed in a cell with only artificial light, he had no way to discern the passage of time. When his parole date came, he was set free. Batman paid him a visit in his new apartment to let him know he would be watching.
Gordon called in Batman - he'd been given a note in Latin. Day was planning something big. Batman gave Tim the note to translate while he went out. Calendar Man had come up with some sort of weapon that emitted electromagnetic pulses, killing mechanical things near it.
Tim got the dates from the note a reported them to Batman. Calendar Man took down a jetliner approaching Gotham City.
Batman and Matches Malone convinced some mooks it was in their best interests to find Day. They found him as soon as Batman did. Calendar Man was saved from his attackers and escaped. Batman found him in time before he blew up a nuclear power plant.
