Solicitation:
- Out of the Batcave and off on his own, the Boy Wonder Tim Drake attempts to get on with a normal life, even so far as going on a date with a lovely lady. But when carjacking gang the Speedboyz show up, it looks like it's no rest for Robin just yet.
Synopsis: - Under the control of the System, Batman holds Robin in a vice-like grip and could easily kill him, but his conscious self reasserts itself and Robin is released, getting out of the Batcave as quickly as possible. He then tries to get on with his normal life as Tim Drake until a date with Ariana is interrupted by the carjacking Speedboyz. He does a little investigation of his own, but soon finds himself at the wrong end of Sheriff Smith's shotgun, suspected of being a Speedboy himself.
