Publisher’s description

A "Contagion" tie-in issue! Batman learns of a secret government entity that might be able to provide a cure for the Clench. Meanwhile, Huntress searches for a student who lost his family to the plague, and Robin lies dying from the plague in the Batcave, his body wracked with pain and his mind racing with images of what could have been.
