Issue Description

 (continued from Batman 512)
Arnold Wesker - the Ventriloquist, and his dummy, Scarface, surfaced and planned to take over the gang that was once theirs. With paperwork and records being a mess since the destruction of Arkham put many of its inmates in Blackgate, Harvey Kent was released from custody. Harvey Dent took his place and walked free. Batman (Dick) and Robin went after Ventriloquist after hearing twenty junkies had died from bad heroin. They took Wesker down, but Scarface fell into the hands of another man in the gang.

Batman: Shadow of the Bat (1992)

Publisher

DC Comics

Volume Description

Batman: Shadow of the Bat, was first published in June of 1992, running 94 issues plus a #0 issue and #1000000 issue until it was canceled in February of 2000. It was quickly replaced by Gotham Knights.

Started as a showcase for Alan Grant and Norm Breyfogle, (and after a short time just Grant). Once Grant was no longer on the title, the creative teams changed for just about every story arc.

For the most part each arc was intended to be self- contained within the Shadow of the Bat series, though much of the book was eventually just used as part of Bat-Family crossovers such as Knightfall and No Man's Land.

Brian Stelfreeze provided covers for much of the run.
