Batman: Mask of the Phantasm Page #4

Synopsis: Batman, the costumed crime-fighter who prowls the night skies in Gotham City, soon finds there's another vigilante in town knocking off prominent mob figures. Despite the scythe-like blade for a hand, a mechanical voice and the cloud of smoke that follows the figure wherever it goes, the police and outraged officials mistake the homicidal crusader for Batman himself and demand that the city's longtime hero be brought to justice. Meanwhile, Andrea Beaumont returns to town. She is the lost love of Bruce Wayne, the billionaire playboy who is Batman's alter ego, and was an integral part of Wayne's decision ten years earlier to don the cape and cowl. Now, she is back in his life and is no less a disruption than the return of his old archenemy, The Joker, who has a stake in seeing the annihilation of this new vigilante, whoever it proves to be.

You!

But he paid you!

Dad?!

Well, Haze, guess it's

time to call it a night.

What do you say, hon?

Feeling the old electricity tonight?

Ain't it always the way? You get

in the mood and company shows up.

Joker...

...your Angel of Death awaits.

I'm impressed, lady.

You're harder to kill

than a cockroach on steroids.

So, you figured it out?

Gotta hand it to you. Nice scheme!

Costume's a bit theatrical,

but hey, who am I to talk?

Very cute...

...but I can blow smoke too, toots!

Nice trick, sweetheart.

You could teach old Batsy

a thing or two about disappearing.

You're not smiling, Joker.

I thought you found death amusing.

Me? Oh, no.

You won't hear a giggle out of me.

Made you look!

Well, if it isn't Smokey the Babe!

Just in time to meet her biggest fan!

How about a little pick-me-up?

Your father's dead, isn't he?

You came into town early

to get Chuckie Sol...

...so you could shift the blame

to your father.

They took everything, Bruce.

My dad, my life...

...you.

I'm not saying it's right, or even

sane, but it's all I've got left.

So either help me

or get out of the way!

You know I can't do that.

Look at what they did to us...

...what we could have had!

They had to pay.

But Andi, what will vengeance solve?

If anyone knows the answer

to that, Bruce...

...it's you.

Leave, Andi.

Now.

Please.

Oh, Batsy!

Yoo-hoo!

You're too late, Batman!

There are 20 miles of tunnels

under this place.

And they're all filled

with explosives.

In five minutes, everything goes up!

You just don't know

when to quit, do you?

What are you doing?

You're crazy! I'm your only chance

to get out of here!

Let me go or we'll both die!

Whatever it takes!

For once...

...l'm stuck without a punch line.

Okay...

...I give up.

I surrendered already.

Tell her, Batman.

You've got to get out of here.

The place is wired to explode!

No. One way or another,

it ends tonight.

Goodbye, my love.

I couldn't save her, Alfred.

I don't think she wanted to be saved.

Vengeance blackens the soul, Bruce.

I always feared you would become

that which you fought against.

You walk the edge of that abyss

every night, but you haven't fallen in.

And I thank heaven for that.

But Andrea fell into

that pit years ago.

No one, not even you,

could have pulled her back.

What is it?

Quite a sight.

I'm sorry...

...do you want to be alone?

I am.
