Despite his being a recovering alcoholic (and sponsored by Killer Croc', no less), Roy Harper is in a bar, working as backup for his only friend, Jason Todd. Jason, however, has attracted some unwanted attention from the man whose girl he is flirting with. In a matter of seconds, Jason beats up the man and his friends, sending them to the floor, squirming in pain. Before they can leave the bar, they are stopped by a local police officer, who demands that they accompany her "downtown". Facing his prey, Jason drops his pistols and changes them for some mystical swords, preparing for battle.
