Plot
Michael Lane has been given the Suit of Sorrows by the Order of Purity. And they have shown him what the suit will, almost inevitably do to him, but in Batman's absence Gotham City desperately needs a savior. To learn Batman's fate, he has traveled to the Batcave, leading him face to face with Nightwing... who was actually looking for him.

The two square off, but Nightwing believes that this new Azrael is trying to do the right thing. Going to Talia, he bargains with her to call off the League of Asassins, allowing Lane to keep the Suit. Little does he know who the Order of Purity truly answers to.
