Stories
- KnightsEnd Part 1 Spirit of the Bat · 40 pages
Recovered from his injuries but not at full fighting strength, Bruce Wayne goes to Lady Shiva for training. He refuses to accept her insistence on killing opponents, so she frames him for the death of the Armless Master, knowing that his followers will seek Bruce out for revenge. Meanwhile, Jean-Paul as Batman is pursuing a gang of gunrunners but the pressure is getting to him and he believes that his father and Saint Dumas are communicating with him.
