Per Batman's orders, he had Robin's group, consisting of himself, Spoiler, Arrowette, and Orphan, track Jervis Tetch, the Mad Hatter since he was released from Arkham Asylumsix months ago. They noticed that he was drinking a lot of water and that the water bottles he was leaving behind contained clay backwash. Robin decides to investigate, but Orphan simply slices Tetch in half, revealing him to be Clayface in disguise. As they battle Clayface, Spoiler reminds the others to forget Clayface—Tetch is their real target. At this, Clayface retreats to protect Tetch. The group is able to track him thanks to a liquid tracker Spoiler planted on him.[3]
Tetch is revealed to be inside a warehouse, injecting a nanotech solution into an inmate. The solution allows others to have complete control over the subject, through words spoken into the Mad Hatter's device. Clayface arrives, yelling that he has to protect Tetch from Robin's team, who then make their entrance. Tetch activates his device, clearly putting Clayface under his thrall. He makes his exit with the inmate while Clayface shields him.[3]
As Clayface keeps the team busy, the Mad Hatter activates a self-destruct button. Although Spoiler is tracking him, he manages to lose her and abscond with his new puppet. Robin grabs one of Hatter's control devices, and as he grapples to the roof, he notices that the warehouse is wired with explosives set to detonate. He orders everyone out of the building, and his team manages to escape just in time. Robin tells Clayface to escape as well, but he is forced to protect Hatter. The warehouse collapses in a fiery explosion with Clayface still inside, but the villain is able to reform.[3]
Black Lightning turns down an offer to join Batman's group, referring to it as "Batman Incorporated." Batman Incorporated is an organization funded by Wayne Enterprises, made up of the Batman Family and the Batmen of All Nations (and their successors). It was formed to stop crime and make Batman to a global franchise.
