Beware the Batman...
You and I should be friends.
We've so much in common.
Not gonna happen.
Margaret Sorrow is gone.
There is only Magpie now.
- Is this nutjob serious?
- Sadly so.
Go away!
Leave Lunkhead
and his toy alone!
Hole.
It's never over until it's over.
Feeding time, Tweety Bird.
The name's Magpie.
Call me Tweety Bird again,
and I'll scratch your eyes out!
Works for me, girlie.
You wanna starve? Be my guest.
Shiny, shiny!
I'm sorry
about this, Batman.
I honestly thought, this time,
the rehabilitation would work.
Just keep him
stuffed with candy.
Batman! Batman!
Excuse me for a moment, Warden.
Magpie. How are you?
Sorry I haven't been
to see you recently.
I was worried something
had happened to you.
I've missed our talks.
Anything I should know?
You can tell me anything.
I'm fine. Thank you.
It's time for us to go.
Radio says Gotham
PDare on their way.
Who's this? Who are you?
It's been good to see you.
When will you visit again?
Batman, when?
Whoever you are,
you don't know him! Not like I do!
You'll never know him like I do!
Why are you with her?
Why would you bring her here?
She doesn't deserve
to be by your side!
Of course!
That's why you came!
You need my help!
Oh, you couldn't tell me
because she was watching.
Clever, my little bat.
Fortunately for you, this
little birdie is clever as well.
Mr. Guard, sir?
You got any candy for Lunkhead?
Not on me, big fella,
but I'll get some for you.
Psst! Lunkhead! Over here!
Hello, lady person.
Does Lunkhead know you?
We're old friends.
The bad people are
holding us hostage.
But you're so strong!
With your help, we can
get out of here together.
All you have to do is take
out the guard when he returns.
But Lunkhead is in here
because he was bad again.
Escaping would be wrong!
Oh, didn't I mention, I have
candy for you if you do this?
Candy?
Oodles of it.
All you could ever want.
Here you go, big guy. Enjoy.
That's it! That's it! Now me!
Okay, lady.
You free.
Now. Where rest
of Lunkhead's candy?
Oops. Sorry, big fella.
No sugar.
How about a few lumps instead?
Argh!
I remember reading
about Magpie in your files.
Split personality, right?
Real name Margaret Sorrow, until she
lost her memories and became Magpie.
Didn't she try to erase
your mind as well?
She did.
And you've been
visiting this nut?
Know your enemy, Katana.
It could save your life.
- Look who flew the coop.
- Magpie.
Sorry about the mess, Batman.
Just wanted to let you
know... message received.
And don't worry.
She won't feel a thing.
Unless, of course,
you want her to.
Time to get pruned,
little flower!
Magpie. Enough!
I just broke out
of prison for you.
A little appreciation
would be nice!
I never asked you
to harm Katana.
And I certainly never told you
to break out of prison, Margaret.
No! Don't call me that!
I hate that name!
If you didn't want my help, why
did you come and see me tonight?
I was dropping off a prisoner.
I don't believe you.
I know you, little bat.
We were made for each other.
And she is getting in the way!
Look, I don't know what's going
on between the two of you...
There is nothing going on!
You're starting to
ruffle my feathers!
I'm going to pluck
those feathers before...
Enough!
Whose side are you on here?
The side of sanity.
You're both out of control.
It's time to put an end to this.
You're absolutely right,
my sweet bat.
It's been a while since
I've been out of my cage,
and this little birdie needs
to spread her wings and fly!
In the last 12 hours,
the plumed lunatic known as "Magpie"
has been on a tear
all over Gotham.
Robbing banks, department
stores, electronics stores..
The only clues
Gotham PD has to go on
are nests of objects left behind at
each crime scene in the shape of a bat.
This has led to speculation
that Magpie could be working
with the masked vigilante
known as "Batman."
Looks like somebody
has himself a fan!
Not funny.
Magpie's crime spree
has no discernible pattern,
and she doesn't stay in one
place long enough to track.
Batman should have never let
himself get so close to her.
Agreed.
So where does that leave us?
Magpie needs to be
put back in her cage.
Which means you're
sitting this one out.
There's no way I'm
staying out of this fight.
I'm the one she threatened!
Which makes you a target.
And a liability Batman
can't afford right now.
Tonight the Bat hunts alone.
Any idea where
you're going to start looking?
All magpies eventually
return to their nests.
Miskatonic Hospital.
Yes. I had the same thought.
Are you really certain
it's wise to go alone?
She's already ambushed
you there once before.
I know her better now, Alfred.
Just out of curiosity, were
you ever planning to tell me
you'd been visiting her
at Blackgate?
What happened to Margaret
Sorrow, to Magpie, was not...
My fault.
Margaret Sorrow didn't understand
the consequences of hiding who you are.
I thought I could help.
Help who? Magpie?
Or yourself?
I knew you would come,
my sweet bat.
My nest was so empty
without you.
Hello, Magpie.
So, did you like the gifts
I left you all over the city?
Magpie, this has to stop.
You know... I was surprised
when you first started visiting me.
In that awful prison.
I only wanted to help.
I never thought it was right
that you were put in Blackgate.
It isn't where you belong.
You mean, I belong with you?
No. You belong in a place that can help
you understand what happened to you.
You belong in a hospital.
What is it that scares
the Batman?
Are you afraid that if you
embrace the dark,
and only the dark,
you might begin to like it?
That you might become free?
Is that what you
want to understand?
What it felt like when
they buried Margaret Sorrow?
That moment when I stepped
completely into one side of myself.
Well, I'll give you a
little hint... it's a rush!
You should try it sometime!
What's that?
She's here, isn't she?
Why did you bring her here?
I had nothing to do with this.
You act like you care about me.
Liar!
Everyone lies to me!
He doesn't need you!
I'll let him tell
me that himself.
What...
Curare. You shouldn't
have gotten in my way.
Why did you let her go after me?
Because you're not
in your right mind.
If you were, you'd never have
gone out there alone, unprotected.
Whatever it is that draws you
to Magpie puts us all at risk.
Wait. Where's Katana?
I don't know.
I searched, but...
And repeating our
top story, Magpie has struck again,
at another local jewelry store.
What are those numbers?
Some sort of code?
No... an address.
Please, don't be
mad, my little bat.
I'm doing this for you.
When the counter runs down,
the fly in our ointment
will be out of our
nest permanently.
Say your goodbyes while you can.
Argh.
If there's anyone out there,
I'm alive in here!
Any progress?
I keep remembering something
Magpie said at the hospital
about her other personality.
Her choice of words. "When
they buried Margaret Sorrow."
When the doctors
wiped Margaret's mind
in exchange for early
release from Blackgate,
the side effect was
the creation of Magpie.
They gave her a new identity.
Gotham Hall of Records.
There's Margaret
Sorrow's date of birth, and...
And her date of death.
When they gave Magpie her new
identity, they killed off her old one.
And to make it legitimate, they
buried her in Gotham Cemetery,
in an empty grave.
Magpie's buried Katana alive
in Margaret Sorrow's grave!
Oh... air's getting thin.
Don't panic, Katana.
You can panic later. Think!
Here! I'm in here! Hurry!
Hello? Hello?
I'm here! I'm alive! No!
This time, I really hoped
you wouldn't come.
Batman, the great detective.
Led to an empty grave.
I expected better, but you
walked right into my trap.
Where is Katana?
Hmm, can't be sure. I buried
her around here somewhere.
I've got trouble with
my memory, remember?
- Tell me!
- No!
I gave you every chance,
did all the heavy lifting,
but you still come
after her. Why?
Why is she more
important than me?
I'm the one who understands you!
No.
You never understood me.
If you did, you know I'd never allow
someone I care about to come to harm.
I thought that by coming
to see you in Blackgate,
I could give you back a
little of the humanity you lost.
I was wrong.
Coward! You are like me.
That's the reason you came to
Blackgate! To see your future!
Hold onto your precious
humanity, Batman.
You and I both know
it's only a matter of time
before it slips from
your grasp forever!
Shiny, shiny!
Enjoy the sting of my talons,
Batman.
I didn't want this, but you
chose your side and lost.
I will miss you, my little bat.
But not forev...
You should have
buried me deeper.
I'll remember that
for next time.
I'd like my sword back.
Then come take it!
When you find a grave
you like, let me know.
You're only a pale
imitation of me, sister.
And you know it!
You're just jealous because
Batman rejected you.
Probably because of
your horrible fashion sense.
I mean, really?
Neck feathers with a bustier?
Kind of trashy. Right, Batman?
Nice try,
but the Bat is dead.
Care to guess again?
But how?
I was prepared for your
poison claws this time,
so I loaded my utility belt with
an antidote of physostigmide.
I really don't want to hurt you.
Too late!
Argh!
Time to put that loony bird
back in her padded cage.
Is Bruce going
to be all right?
He's not the one
I'm worried about.
You're talking about Batman.
Batman, unlike Bruce,
belongs to the darkness.
But there's a price to pay
for staying too long.
Margaret Sorrow paid
that price, and became Magpie.
I fear Batman believes one day,
he might pay that price as well.
And if that happens?
Then it will be up to us
to show him the way home.
