Joker hinted while
being questioned that the reporter would be the victim of a bomb.
GCPD sent out teams to look for it. As the interrogation got
violent, Batman appeared to Akins to warn him that Joker would be
doing what he was doing publicly - the city had more or less just
re-opened for Christmas shopping. As they sent out more teams to
check toy stores, Joker killed his interrogator, grabbed a gun and
began shooting up the precinct. Sawyer stopped him with three
bullets to his back. Officers finally found the bomb and the
reporter with just over four minutes left. The store was evacuated
and Batman arrived. All survived, but were hospitalized. Akins had
the signal repaired as he spoke with Sawyer about her experiences
with Superman. |
