GOTHAM’S DAWN
The war on crime knows no limits for Batman and his soldiers!
THE BATMAN #3
Written by ED BRUBAKER
Plot by GLOBAL HONORED
Art by BRIAN BOLLAND
Interlocking Villains Variant Cover by BRUCE TIMM (featuring The Riddler)
"The Last Riddle"
Arkham Asylum - The "John Doe" spree killer is now in custody, having unexpectedly turned himself in after a deadly manhunt. Traces of the new psychotic street drug are found in his blood. In her first session with the mysterious man, resident psychiatrist Dr. Quinn notes a trait of uncontrollable laughter when the prisoner is pressed and an unsettling grin that never leaves his face. He doesn't want help, but he wants to be here. It doesn't make sense...
London - Lucius Fox has tracked the source of the leak into Wayne Enterprises' database. It coincides with the rumors of an international takeover attempt on the company. All coming from England. Catwoman happens to be there as well. But the men she made a deal with don't intend to pay up, or expect her to survive to talk about what she may have done for them. It's a cut throat business. Can Selina scratch her way out of it?
Recap: Along Gotham Harbor at the most exclusive underground party of the year. The Masked Ball in Batman's honor. Open to only the town's most corrupt, wealthiest, and vilest criminal element. The Riddler is about to reveal the true identity of the Caped Crusader when...*BANG!*BANG!* Now: Two shots ring out. Someone close to the stage. The Riddler falls to the ground. The Riddler's been shot! The Riddler's....dead. The party panics. Riddler's men quickly retrieve the body and like everyone else, they rush to flee the scene. Bruce Wayne in his domino mask surveys the crowd. He notices a cold hand slip confidently, naturally back into a coat, smoke gently dissipating into the moist air. The killer. Who momentarily stops and turns, looking directly at Bruce...and winks! Bruce pushes towards the gunman but the party is in chaos, and the wave of partygoers are forcing him back. The gunman slips away. He knows he can't be seen here. He hears the whispers. "The Batman did it." "The Batman was here.""Batman killed Riddler." Bruce is aware that his name is on the guest list. Everyone will be a suspect. But who was the murderer? How did he know? Why silence the Riddler? He only got a glimpse. Strangely familiar. A cold chill races across his spine as he makes it outside. Alfred has the boat waiting for a quick exit. Batman's identity may have been saved, but he's never been in more danger. The city won't sleep until Justice is served!
To be continued.....Who shot the Riddler!?!

The insidious Kobra, a twisted doomsday cult dedicated to bringing about Kali Yuga, the age of chaos that sweeps away the imperfect world, has coiled itself around the leadership of both Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. Only a top-secret Allied special operations taskforce commissioned by President Roosevelt can stop them, and there’s only one man who can lead this “G.I. Combat”: the hard-as-nails platoon sergeant of the indomitable Easy Company, Franklin Rock! Under Sgt. Rock’s command is a collection of soldiers unlike any the War has seen: the never-say-die French Resistance fighter, Mademoiselle Marie; the nameless but peerless U.S. grunt, the Unknown Soldier; the Ninja who defected after realizing Tojo’s folly, Kyodai Ken; the machine that fights like a man, G.I. Robot; the M3 Stuart possessed by the spirit of the 19th-century Confederate general J.E.B. Stuart, the Haunted Tank; and the Army K-9 Corpsman enhanced by the super-soldier serum, Rex the Wonder Dog! When the eclectic combat unit’s first mission brings them against Kobra’s immortal sorceress Circe on the occupied Greek isle of Crete, the first shots of the Weird War are fired…

"Down & Out in the Bialyan Hills" (Part 3)
Bialya, Baby! The gang has finally arrived. The Royal Palace awaits. This shouldn't be too difficult. Queen Bee is offering one million dollars to two of the most capable mercenaries on the planet - Floyd Lawson and Thomas Blake, also known in the costumed community as Deadshot & Catman, to restore her to power. The mission is simple: Raid the Castle! All the boys have to do is infiltrate the palace, as quiet as a cat, take out the power hungry General who led the coup and sits on her throne, and watch the dominos fall. It's a land of peasants after all. Then Floyd and Thomas can cash their check and get back to the good life at Floyd's bar, or the African Jungle, to each his own. The Queen will wait in the chopper until she gets the signal that all is clear. Except for one little snag. (There's always a snag!)
The General isn't in charge. In fact, he's dead. Having played his part. Just a pawn in a game of family feud. It's Queen Bee's own snot nosed sister who rules the land and she's bought herself a gang of mercenaries to protect her interests. Looks like Bee wasn't exactly telling the boys everything. And right now, Deadshot and Catman are quite aware of the real situation and the s#*+ they just walked into - fifty of the world's deadliest hired guns staring them down. I hate %#*+ing ambushes! And then they see the boss, who obviously is playing his own angle here - Maxwell Lord!
"Welcome to Bialya, boys. I call them The Lord's Army, my own private peacekeeping firm. You may recognize a few faces, fellow assassins and vile bloodthirsty bastards like yourself. But we aren't hiring, so I assume you are here for other nefarious business. The way I see it. You have one option: Turn around and leave this country immediately, never to step foot in it again. You do that, you live. The alternative...well, these men haven't killed anyone since this afternoon so their getting a bit twitchy."
Looks like our lovable rogues are in a bind. To be Continued.....
