The Dark Knight: Knight of Gotham #19
I have Alfred send word to Jim about Klaus being restrained in the Gotham Life Building before taking a perch on a nearby crane that's being used to rebuild the old Gotham clock tower. I pass several 'Wayne Rejuvenation Project' signs as I make my way up the crane. Given how Jason was the one who fired the rocket at the clock tower I do feel rather obligated to repair the tower. The added bonus that I can still continue my parents legacy of trying to help Gotham is merely icing on the cake. As I'm positioned on the highest crane of the building I signal the batwing to run scans for the trace elements in Lazarus. Gotham's a big city and if I'm going to find the Crimson Knight I'm going to need to make it smaller.
In the meantime as the batwing scans for Lazarus in the city I receive a transmission from Alfred over the comm system.
"Master Bruce?"
"Who else?"
"Indeed but I've picked up a call to the GCPD claiming to have seen an old friend of yours entering the Wilson condiment factory."
"Condiment factory? Oh please tell me it isn't...."
"I'm afraid so Master Bruce."
"Oh for goodness sake."
"I'll prepare the equipment to give your suit a good wash down when you get back Master Bruce."
"Thanks Alfred. Your sympathy means a lot...."
I leave my perch on top of the crane and make my way over to the Wilson Condiment Factory. I can't believe he's doing this again, and on tonight of all nights. It's moments like this when I would be grateful to have a Robin as I could simply send them to deal with him. Of course he would make a resurgence on the night that Tim is in Carthage with Jason.
It takes less than five minutes to make it to the condiment factory and I engage the jammer on my belt to stop any security alarms going off as I walk in through the front door, last thing I want is to give away the element of the surprise.
Predictably he's made his way straight to the large vats of various condiments that have already been made, no doubt hoping to sabotage them in some way, I dread to think how, so his aspiring 'company' can make a play for all the condiment business in Gotham. Not if I can help it. Boy it's only when I hear myself say that in my head that I realise just how stupid this all is. I mean come on. Who goes around Gotham using condiments as a weapon? It took five hours to get all the mustard out of my first suit when I first crossed paths with you Standler, you'd better push your luck and try to put up a fight.
As you'd expect I manage to track him down in no time but before he's made his way to storage. He isn't too far from it though so rather than give him any opportunity I make my play pulling out my gel gun and dropping down behind.
He jumps the moment he hears my voice echo in the corridor.
"I'm really not in the mood for this Standler."
