Synopsis:

The French aerialists and thieves Double Dare are in trouble as they've stolen some items which belong to the Penguin. He wants them back or wants the twins dead, and Nightwing and Azrael set out both to protect Double Dare and to recover the money they have stolen from one of Wayne Enterprises' charities. Nightwing and Azrael get along in an uneasy manner, as Azrael feels that his colleague does not like him.
The twins lead them directly to the Penguin's hideout, where they discover that he is not exactly a man of honor, ordering his men to kill the duo. Nightwing and Azrael come to their assistance, also forcing them to hand over the charity money they stole. As they leave, Azrael reveals that he envies Nightwing, for his confidence in the world, in women and in Batman. This brings the two closer as Nightwing reveals that these are the things he feels least confident about. They realize that the only person who genuinely doesn't lose confidence in anything is their mentor Batman.

Comment(s):

This story is probably an Elseworlds tale and thus not part of regular continuity.

Synopsis:

Incarcerated in adjoining cells at Arkham, Poison Ivy and Harley have a gamble - Ivy bets she can get a kiss from every man in the asylum. As her pheromones spread through the building, it looks like Ivy will win the bet. However, when the Joker finally appears on the scene, he murmurs about how much he loves Harley - Ivy has lost the bet as Joker thought he was kissing someone else. Later, Harley pays off the Ventriloquist, who was the real power behind Joker's sweet nothings.
