Prelude to Knightfall

Bruce Wayne decides to give a rest to the role as Batman and takes some social affairs at Wayne Enterprises. The visit gets him to know about a secret project known as "Echo", a development by WayneTech, which is to be completed by other two companies, to keep a better security on the project.

Meanwhile, Robin and Azrael went to Wayne Tower to check the building's security just to find that someone has jammed some cameras and are already inside. They were trying to steal the safe when Azrael and Robin took them out, but Azrael lost control and almost killed one of the thugs.

Cypher appears twice in the story, forcing two men to commit suicide. At the funeral of one of them, Lucius Fox denotes his worries about the deaths; as both the deceased were the CEOs of the other companies working on the Echo Project.
