| Synopsis
| - Having been thrown by Abraham Langstrom, Batman is falling to an inevitable death, far from the Batplane's reach. In a desperate effort, he fires two grappling ropes from his gauntlets in either direction, hoping that the purchase of the buildings on his sides will hold him aloft without ripping the arms from his body. Fortunately, his life is saved, but his body is painfully strained, requiring medical attention in the Batcave, later.
As Alfred tends to his wounds, Bruce utters an "ouch," prompting his friend to gleefully jibe that they ought to call the press about it. Bruce, of course, doesn't find it funny, and leaves for a meeting with Jim Gordon at the precinct. Unfortunately, Jim reminds that his department is powerless to do anything about Abraham Langstrom's murderous ventures as a Man-Bat without any evidence. Batman, though, he reminds, is free to do the things that he cannot; unbound by the law.
Soon, Batman has invaded Abraham Langstrom's home, warning that he knows about the man's use of Man-Bat Serum. Langstrom knows that if there were any evidence against him, the police would have come instead, and so Batman is powerless. Gritting his teeth, Batman warns that when Langstrom slips, he will be there, by whatever means. Langstrom responds that he never slips.
Hoping to incriminate Langstrom, Batman asks, hypothetically, why he would target the homeless for his murders. Langstrom responds, hypothetically, that the Man-Bat is targeting those who take a toll on society by failing to contribute; those who won't be missed. Batman, thinking all this time of how he managed to pull the data from Langstrom's car's GPS system and found that he'd passed by a homeless shelter several times, warns that he misses these victims as he leaves.
Later, he stops at Langstrom's son Kirk's lab, begging the doctor's help in finding away to administer the antidote to the serum that can penetrate the tough bat's skin. Kirk admits that he isn't sure if he can help there, as his father has taken the serum beyond anything that he ever did - just like most other things. His father had always thought of him as a failure. Reassuringly, Batman reminds of the altruistic move Kirk had made to save the 900 Block, and explains that seeing Kirk do that had taught him something he might be able to use to stop Abraham Langstrom.
That night, Abraham injects himself with his serum, and flies toward Gotham City and the homeless shelter. Batman, however, is already staking the place out when Langstrom attacks. Disguised as a vagrant himself, Batman ushers the potential victims out through the cafeteria doors, knowing the Man-Bat won't be able to fit through them. Batman is aware that not everyone will make it to safety, and he's counting on him being one of those left behind.
Soon, Langstrom targets him, and Batman allows the beast's fangs to penetrate his armour. While a needle couldn't penetrate Langstrom's skin, the Man-Bat's fangs could penetrate his, so he had injected himself with the antidote. Still Langstrom is powerful, and Bruce feels himself bleeding out and losing consciousness, struggling to hold on to consciousness long enough to ensure that Langstrom's transformation is reversed. Finally, Langstrom drops to his knees, returned to his former self, and Batman struggles to his feet, binding his prey with ropes as the GCPD's sirens approach.
Eventually, Langstrom is tried in court, and gets off by reason of temporary insanity. Outside the courthouse, he incredulously tells reporters that he has no explanation as to how the serum got into his bloodstream, and that he fears no suits against him from the homeless who were his victims. Grinning, he explains that there is no way to assign worth to people who don't even contribute to society. In response, the homeless daughter of one of his victims reminds him that he murdered her father, and he is silenced.
While Abraham Langstrom's cutthroat business methods will never change, as he seeks new opportunities to win capital by watching the city for vulnerabilities, he cannot help but feel the city staring back in the form of the Batman.

| - Batman se encuentra cayendo al vacio. Su enfrentamiento con Abraham Langstrom lo ha dejado en una situación crítica que lo obliga a pensar rápidamente antes de estrellarse contra el suelo. Con gran esfuerzo, él lanza dos ganchos cuerdas desde sus muñecas en el momento justo y queda colgado entre dos edificios. Tal esfuerzo le disloca varios huesos y desgarra sus musculo por lo que, de regreso a la baticueva mientras Alfred le realiza las curaciones habituales, Bruce se permite quejarse un poco del dolor lo cual lee causa gracias al mayordomo. Rápidamente Batman le informa de los ataques de Langstrom al Comisionado Gordon pero este y la policía no pueden hacer mucho contra el empresario ya que no hay evidencias demasiado solidas por lo que Gordonthumb|left|346px le concede permiso al héroe de hacer sus cosas de “vigilante” para resolver prontamente aquel caso. Esa misma noche Batman confronta a Abraham en su mansión e inevitablemente el empresario niega todas las acusaciones que el héroe lanza contra él sin embrago admite de que el hipotético caso de que él fuera Man-Bat jamás seria vencido ya que era mucho más fuerte que el original. Abraham admite, hipotéticamente hablando, que él iría tras los vagabundos ya que son gente que no contribuye en nada a la sociedad y que además nadie los extrañaría pero antes de marcharse Batman le hace ver que se equivoca ya que él si los extrañaría. Más tarde el visita a Kirk nuevamente para pedirle que elabore una mejor forma de administrarle el suero a la nueva bestia ya que su piel es demasiado dura como para inyectarle una aguja, no obstantes Kirk se muestra incapaz de hacer algo en contra de su padre. A pesar de saber que Batman lo estaría vigilando, Abraham no puede contenerse y se inyecta nuevamente el suero para salir de cacería hacia la Colina, un centro para gente sin hogar en donde pueden pasar la noche al resguardo del frio. Sabiendo que ese podría ser una de sus objetivos Batman se infiltra en el lugar y ayuda a evacuar a la personas para ponerlas al resguardo del ataque de la bestia. Una vez que el lugar quedan solo Batman y Man-Bat, el héroe no opone resistencia y se deja morder por la bestia ya que como las agujas no podían penetrar su piel Batman se inyecto la cura a sí mismo. A medida que el monstruo succiona la sangre del caballero de la noche comienza a transmutarse nuevamente hasta recuperar su estado actual lo cual lo deja a merced de la policía. Sin embargo tiempo después Abraham es llevado a juicio y es liberado tras alegar locura temporal derivada del estado que había adoptado. El empresario sale victorioso de la corte gracias a sus contactos e influencia sin embargo a la salido es encarado por una pequeña sin hogar quien le dice que él mato a su padre; las palabras de la niña lo afectan gravemente y él se retira a su mansión para regresar a su vida cotidiana. Pero todo ha cambiado; Abraham no puede descansar ya que sabe fehacientemente que con cada paso que dé o con cada acción que realice, siempre lo tendrá a Batman vigilándolo desde las sombras.
