Disclaimer: I do not own Batman or any of the other characters in this story. They all completely belong to Bob Kane.
This story is set after the first chapter of the original Batman Daily Comics, and private investigator Dan Tack, who had cleverly disguised himself as Blackie in order to break people out of jail and turn them in, then collecting the reward money, has just been taken to Gotham City Jail.
Damn it! How did that flying rodent and that little bird fool us like this? Dan Tack smacked his head into the cold, hard wall. The rain from outside trickled in through the little hole in the concrete that showed the dark, gloomy outside world. Tack scratched his bald head and went over a couple of escape plans in his mind. No, no, no! That Batman has too much skill for any of these to work. I have got to find a plan that doesn't concern him. Tack sat on the soiled mattress and looked around the stark, little cell. It only contained a grubby toilet, a grimy tray from lunch, and the mattress upon which he now sat. If only Batman and Robin were preoccupied… Hey! I might have got something there! If I could cause some other case for Batman and Robin to work on, I could get away with no extra trouble! He knelt down o the dusty floor and started to draw a plan in the filth. I'll get my assistant, Gunner, to visit me, have him catch the Batman and Robin up in another crime, break out of here, and get away scot free. Breaking out of this penitentiary will be simple, but setting up a doozy of a case for Batman will be more of a challenge…
Later at the Batcave… Batman and Robin are being called to the Commissioner's office for some urgent information about the Gunner rising again. They arrive to the scene of a ransacked office and an empty chair where Commissioner Gordon should be.
"Holy Ramshackle, Batman!" Robin stared into the pillaged room n disbelief. "Batman, what do we do?"
"We find Commissioner Gordon, and whatever else may have been taken."
And that's chapter one! Sorry if it was a little dry and short, but please review with constructive criticism.
