Black Mask finally makes an appearance in the world of Batman Strikes. Right now, his focus is on consolidating the crime scene in Gotham. His assessment of the situation, as he calls it, it's a "Mom & Pop" operation. Which really insults those that consider themselves masters of their craft. And as the new emerging business man on the Gotham scene, he sees Bruce Wayne as his primary competition. So he tries to make a deal with him. But Bruce is having nothing to do with it. In the end, Bruce turns the table on Black Mask, by offering his henchmen jobs with incentives. As I've said before, this, and the rest of the Johnny DC line, is a great jumping on point for the kids. It's nice simple stories that they can enjoy, and they usually present a pretty rounded perspective of the DC Universe. Plus . . . they're fun.
