Absolute Batman #9

AN ALL NEW ARK (M) STARTS HERE! The latest development in saving the derelict and despondent of our society is a facility known as Ark M — a fully operational institution that has played a rather sizeable part, on purpose or not, in the creation of evil. And it's active. So when Bruce tries infiltrate it and distill its secrets, a new villain from Gotham City arrives to deal with the problem... an old adversary of Alfred's... a man known only as Bane.

This issue started off odd, I guess a few days pass since bruce run in with fries. I thought fries were gonna be in more issues, but I guess not. Great introduction of this universe Bane, seems like bruce having problems since the first arc. One minute fries, and on the next bane. Hope bruce don’t get to banged up after this one, if he survives.
