However, a new gang of toughs have moved into their old territory and are not looking to share the wealth. Scarface is beaten, broken and left for dead. Feeling free for the first time in a long time, the Ventriloquist soon learns that some devils refuse to go quietly into the night. Story continues in Detective Comics 642.
