1. Simon Hurt And The Black Glove - R.I.P. (Part One)
The Villain Thomas Wayne is a distant ancestor of Batman. Leader of a demonic cult that worshiped the bat demon Barbatos, Thomas was the black sheep of the Wayne bloodline. He succeeded in his quest to gain eternal life and renamed himself Simon Hurt, establishing the secret organisation The Black Glove and very nearly destroying Batman. The Mission Alfred receives an anonymous letter that only states 'Zur-En-Arrh'. Upon hearing the word, Batman's head begins to explode with pain. Crawling to the Batmobile, he blacks outs just before a random thug takes a swing at his head with a bat. The thug is killed by Flamingo. A naked Bruce wakes up in a pile of garbage with no memory of who he is. Batmite pops up and explains that Bruce is The Batman of Zur-En-Arrh. With the thug's bat and a costume fashioned from rags, Bruce must travel to the Batcave. Your utility belt consists of random junk (such as shards of glass for Batarangs), your armour is severely limited and the Batmobile is not available. All the while, Batmite accompanies you. You must counter-KO the dastardly Le Bossu and immediately take out Swagman by beating him with a rocket launcher he's attempting to use on you. The formidable Flamingo returns as a tough opponent and eventually tries to eat your face - that is, until Alfred arrives and brains him with a baseball bat. Simon Hurt tries to flee in a helicopter while desperately trying to convince Bruce that he is his father. Bruce claims that Hurt is Mangrove Pierce, an actor who had once been his fathers double. A QTE between the two takes place in the helicopter and the it crashes, with Batman narrowly escaping. Batmite waves Hurt goodbye, and Alfred put his arm around Bruce's shoulder.
