  • Killer Killer Part 2: The Old Man and the Sea · 22 pages

    Batman confronts the "Killer Killer" as the Penguin is about to be shot. "Killer Killer" is actually one of the Penguin's men who wants to kill the Penguin and take over. Batman struggles with the killer. He is distracted by Scarface and company who are about to kill an old man, who is trying to save the bird. The Batman defeats the Killer and considers using the Killers rifle to shoot the Ventriloquist. Instead he throws a batarang at Scarface. The dummy falls into the river and the Ventriloquist follows him. The Batman captures Rhino and "Killer Killer".

Publisher’s description

The vigilante who's been preying on Gotham's underworld has chosen the Penguin as his next victim. Meanwhile, the Ventriloquist has picked a very unusual victim of his own. Batman must learn who's to die--and then do something about it.
