Black Mask is cured, or so his doctor thinks.
Using the mind-controlling influence of the Black Mask, he causes the doctor to think that he is still incarcerated while he has actually been on the loose for weeks.
Batman and Police Commissioner Gordon decide to investigate.
Gordon follows some leads, as does Batman-although his tends to be a little more violent.
Meanwhile the Black Mask hunts down the man who stole his other masks only to come up against someone else who wants the power of the masks-including the black mask.
Things start to get interesting and then Batman shows up.
Things get a little rough and tumble and the Black Mask is once more behind bars-or so his doctor thinks.
I really like this annual. It goes much more into the power behind the Black Mask, its history, those that were involved in its creation (along with the other masks) and how the mask has manipulated and controlled people-sometimes without them even knowing it.
Is the man behind the mask in control or is the mask in control of the man?
The New 52 Batman Detective Comics Annual #1 from DC Comics features great art, a compelling story and more than its fair share of surprises.
Hebrews 10:25 - Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
