RETRIBUTION PART 1 - SONS AND LOVERS Batman is interfering a drug shipment from the Inzerillo's. Indeed, he runs right into a family feud as Enrico Inzerillo tries to stop his son Jack from taking too many risks. Enrico promises Batman to go to jail - he just begs Batman to save the life of his son. Next day, Bruce Wayne travels to Metropolis intending to meet Talia al Ghul who is the new CEO of LexCorp. But Talia does not attend the meeting and Bruce struggles to leave the right message for her. Outside, Clark Kent is waiting for Bruce who reluctantly admits that his arch-enemy Ra's al Ghul probably makes him responsible for Talia leaving the side of her father. Later, Bruce meets with one of his lawyers regarding his adoption of Dick Grayson. But surprisingly, a man named Yoska Graesinka has objected the adoption by claiming to be Dick's paternal grandfather. Bruce immediately meets with Dick, and as always over the last months it ends up in a heated discussion which needs to be stopped by Oracle. Dick agrees to meet with Graesinka who indeed seems to know a lot about Dick's family. After Batman once again made sure that Jack Inzerillo does not get himself killed while threatening a judge in his own house, he returns to Wayne Manor to meet both Dick and his alleged grandfather. At first, the old man seems peaceful, but then he claims to know the secret why Dick is with Bruce ... THE LESSON On his birthday, Bruce recalls his birthday soon after his parent's death.
