However, he has always had a great hatred towards the Wayne family and therefore towards their last representative, Bruce, whose friend he nevertheless claims to have always been. Helping the Riddler, one of his unofficial patients, recover from his cancer by finding and stealing the use of a Lazarus pit from Ra's Al Ghul, the surgeon discovers Batman's true identity through Nigma's healing enlightenment. Together, the two super-villains foment a plot unlike any the Dark Knight has ever faced in order to defeat him for good and to reduce him... to Hush !
