Synopsis
  • On the night of their first anniversary, Jason Bard is taking Barbara Gordon to go see the play "Invitation to Murder." The two are shocked to find that they are the only two people in audience. When spotting a rifle setting to shoot one of the actors, Jason stops the gunman but is knocked out. Changing into Batgirl in the darkness, Barbara tries to stop the shooter but the gunman still manages to get away. Changing back into her civilian guise, Babs checks on Jason and finds that he is all right. Realizing that the wild shot must have hit somebody, they find that it winged Robbie Marlow who was viewing the play with his wife Tiz After questioning the couple they find out that they were given the tickets to a bought out showing of the play by an anonymous admirer, and the only reason why Jason and Barbara happened to be there is because of a mix up with the date they were going to see the show. Finding it all suspicious, Babs tells Jason to keep an eye on the couple while she goes to "call the police"... Continued next issue.
