(Batman III #1) - Gordon summoned Batman to tell him about a raid on Fort Marshall in which three surface-to-air missiles were stolen. Batman was aware, even though Gordon thought only he had been informed by the Secretary of Defense, and he told Batman Kobra was behind it. Two missiles had been recovered from a Kobra safehouse, but one of there terrorists was running around Gotham with the last one. As they spoke the terrorist fired, hitting a commercial airplane, and Batman lept into action.  Batman used fuel boosters and his grappling hook to guide the plane into the Gulf of Blackgate, willing to sacrifice his own life, but at the last moment the impact was averted by Gotham's newest superheroes, Gotham and Gotham Girl.
