Batman: Gotham Knight Page #3

...our satellite suffered|severe structural damage.

My first thought was a meteor.

Once we recovered|the detached section...

...we discovered|that it was crushed from the inside.

-By what?|-An electromagnetic pulse.

One we're about to replicate.

You're gonna wanna step back.

[HUMMING]

[WHINES]

Watch yourseIf.

My apologies.

The Waynecom satellite orients itself using|gyroscopic electromagnetic navigation.

This circuit is what generates|the field, correct?

Some of the prototypes|developed capacitance.

We thought we solved the probIem.

Apparently, that is not the case.

So, what now?

I got an idea.

[GUNFIRE]

This is a highly sensitive|shock-wave sensor.

When the sensor detects a sound|above a preset decibel...

...it'll charge the gyro|and trigger a puIse.

One strong enough to deflect a bullet.

It'll work against all small-arms ammunition,|even at close range.

Somebody pulls a rifle, though,|you better duck.

Now, why would someone|wanna shoot me, Mr. Fox?

Let's just say your boyish charm...

...might not work with everybody,|Mr. Wayne.

MAN:
|Oh! Oh....

[POLITE CLAPPING]

I admire a man|who vows to rebuild a neighborhood...

...and starts by putting in a golf course.

It's all about setting a tone, really.

Considering moving here?|I could get you a deal.

I appreciate that, Mr. Marshall.

It's just the murder|of that community activist lady...

...the one who tried to stop you|from building here.

Stories like that are bad|for my feng shui.

[BEEPS]

Teresa Williams was a thorn|in my side, no doubt.

But she was an admirable person.

The irony is that she died from gang fire|by the punks she defended.

By the way, I'm naming|the homeless shelter in her honor.

Maybe that'll help your feng shui.

You're up.

[CHUCKLES]

One thing I've learned in life, Bruce,|you're only as good as your drive.

[POWERS UP]

Aah!

CADDIE:
We'll get right on it, sir.|MARSHALL: How the heck did that happen?

-Got any interest in some poker tonight?|BRUCE: I have some business to attend to.

Is that right? Blond or brunette?

Half-Russian, half-Italian.

[WHISTLES]

Wow. Now that's a handful.

[MAN 1 RETCHES]

MAN 2:
|Hey, you all right, boss?

MAN 1 :
|What's it look like to you?

Someone wanna tell me|why everyone's standing around...

...when you should be out there putting|The Russian in his grave?

I can't kill what I can't find.

Then look harder.

[GAGS]

All of you. Every second|that piece of garbage breathes air...

...I gotta be out here puking off|the side of this freaking boat.

I want him found and I want him dead.
