Rising from the explosion, Mitchel discovers he has the ability to burn through anything, and is dubbed "The Corrosive Man." Batman tries to stop Mitchel after he inadvertently kills a firefighter and burns 2 police officers, but Mitchel gets away. Blaming Kadaver for the circumstances which transformed him, Mitchel seeks him out to exact revenge. Meanwhile, Kadaver sends his aide Webley to kill a hobo named Dalton Walls.
