Robin, Blue
Beetle, and Black Canary went after G-Nome, a shape shifter
who'd been Jokerized. They found him in the form of a giant
bug and dosed him with the antiserum. Oracle sent them after
the Condiment King - a freak she and the original Robin had
originally taken down years before. He'd changed - working
with Poison Ivy in Arkham, he'd developed poisons for his
condiments. They took him down; Barbara visited Dick. |
