Synopsis:
This issue is the prelude to Batman: R.I.P. Bruce Wayne is on a date with Jezebel Jet who gives him a hard time for ditching her all the time. They get interrupted by Ten-Eyed Man, a villain who kidnaps Jezebel and defeats Bruce. Meanwhile Robin & Nightwing team-up together to face some local crooks and later discover what's going on with Bruce and go help him out. Also, Talia, her son Damian and Merlyn are plotting a new scheme. Bruce himself quickly recovers from his beat-down but goes berserk. In a full-out rage he defeats the villain and rescues Jezebel, but when the batsignal is light up in the sky and Bruce stares at it, she puts two and two together and figures out the hard truth: Bruce Wayne is Batman!
