ENGLISH BOOK
"LOYALTIES": Dwight Petersen, a Chicago
contractor, is constructing a building that is not up to code, and
Alderman Maseryk sends a bagman named Axel Hatchett to Dwight's home to
shake him down for a bribe. Instead of paying, Dwight threatens to go to
a reporter named Rothko, and Hatchett slams his head against the
kitchen counter, threatening Dwight's wife Susan, his daughter Andrea,
his cat Boots, and Andrea's goldfish Bubbles if he goes to the papers.
Dwight gives in. Neither of them sees Andrea's friend Barbara hiding on the stairs, listening in to their conversation. Barbara creeps back to Andrea's room and tries to fall back asleep. Three years later, in Gotham City, Captain Gordon
and his officers have surrounded St. Catherine's where a man named Dan
Monroe has taken hostages. Father Hughes urges Gordon to give it more
time, but Carghill retorts that it's been six hours and that Monroe is
calling himself "Atilla" and threatening to burn the church down. The
priest doesn't want to risk the lives of Sister Felicia and the ten
children inside. Gordon sees Batman leap overhead, and he tells Carghill that the SWAT team isn't going in, he is. Gordon walks inside where Monroe greets him with a flamethrower
and the declaration that he is the scourge of God. Gordon reasons with
Monroe by referencing the story of Abraham and Isaac, telling him God
wouldn't want him to harm children, and Monroe hesitates for a second,
giving Batman long enough to jump Monroe. Gordon gets Sister Felicia and
the children out while Batman fights Monroe. Carghill tries to lead the SWAT team inside, but Gordon refuses
to allow it as the senior officer on site. A second later, Monroe is
kicked out of the church's front doors. Back at GCPD Headquarters, Gordon is greeted with congratulations and two messages, one from his wife and the other from the Chicago district attorney, Federale. Gordon calls his wife back, and Barbara tells him that Dwight
Petersen was found dead. Officially it was an accident at his
construction site, but Barbara doesn't believe it. Gordon promised her
that this wouldn't follow them to Gotham, but it has and the Chicago DA
must have called him to get "the name." Gordon refuses to tell them, and
she knows why he won't. He hangs up when Batman crawls through his window. Batman asks
why Gordon went into the church when he had the situation under control.
He believes Gordon still doesn't trust him, but Gordon doesn't know Batman. Gordon thanks him for his help tonight. Gordon is walking home when he is surrounded by four men, led by Axel Hatchett, who drug him and drag him into a waiting car. In Wayne Manor, Alfred Pennyworth
wakes up Bruce Wayne and reports that Captain Gordon appears to have
been kidnapped. Bruce believes Gordon was taken by one of his own
enemies, hoping to find out what they could about the Batman, and he is
determined to save one of the few allies he has. Batman goes on a rampage through Gotham's underworld, beating up
crooks for information, but no one knows anything. Alfred suggests that
perhaps an enemy of Gordon abducted him. Hatchett has taken Gordon back to Chicago where they are holding
him inside an abandoned church. Alderman Maseryk interrogates him as his
men torture him, but Gordon is unafraid. He knows they can't kill him
before he gives them the name. Hatchett tells Maseryk that Gordon might
be able to withstand torture, but can he stand watching his wife and son
be tortured? Maseryk tells him to take the private jet to Gotham. Bruce, meanwhile, has figured almost everything out. He knows
this has to do with Dwight Petersen and that Gordon was taken to
Chicago, but not even he knows the name of the witness who identified
Petersen as a victim of Maseryk's corruption. That's what everyone wants
to know.
