Biography[]
Effigy[]
In Gotham City, a member of the Mutant street gang raced through the sewer on a motorcycle, fleeing from a robbery. When suddenly an armored arm reached out and knocked the gang member off his bike. He cowers as he found himself before Batman. Using a small Bat-taser, Batman incapacitates the gang member and called Nightwing for a report.
She quipped about using handlebars from another motorcycle as she took out two more Mutants. However, several members were savagely murdered by a mysterious creature who was cloaked. Nightwing encountered it before the creature escaped, frightened by flash grenades.
Lantern[]
Batman and Nightwing were fighting more members of the Mutants when suddenly the sidekick noticed a bright yellow light in the sky. Nightwing thought it was a storm, but Batman knew what it really was. The Mutants then made a beeline towards Arkham Asylum with the heroes following. They lost their powers and were again defeated along with the other inmates of Arkham Asylum and imprisoned.
