Batman arrived on the island and stopped Dragoncat from snatching chemicals he was to deliver to Firefly. The next night, he brought reinforcements. Batman took care of them as well, but was seen on camera by Zehrhardt. The warden ordered a lockdown. Cluemaster and his gang proceded with their plans. The new guard was killed. Firefly started his fire, which spread into the facility's electric grid. As the prisoners were being moved, they rioted and took over. Batman, with help from some bad planning on the prisoners' part, stopped the escape. After the ordeal was over, three were dead and two dozen were missing.
