Publisher’s description
A gang war in Gotham City's Chinatown forces Batman on a collision course with Dragon, a mystically-trained martial arts assassin from China. Dragon's main target is Johnny Kahn, a man Batman is trying to bring to justice. But Dragon has a second target - Batman himself, who was, as a youth, a training rival of Dragon's in the Far East!
