Batman #608 December 2002
The first chapter of twelve in the anticipated “Hush” storyline begins with Batman on a rescue mission to save Edward Lamont from capture. Apparently Edward is the heir to the Lamont chemical fortune. While making their escape, Batman and Edward run into Edward’s captor, the Killer Croc. Batman had previously made up his mind that the authorities shouldn’t be cost themselves to paying the ransom so he goes in alone and tries to rescue Edward. A dramatic fight scene ensues between the Batman and Killer Croc and with some clever tactics Batman manages to restrain Killer Croc. The FBI finally catches up to the pair, safeguarding Edward. During the fight Catwoman takes off with Killer Croc’s briefcase. Inside is the ransom money. Batman follows but is overpowered by Catwoman while swinging through the city. Catwoman gets away with the money and meets up with Poison Ivy and so the issue ends.
