A Comedy of Errors

A rival crime family of the Maroni's has moved into the city of Gotham. In a desperate act to monopolize the last of the city's junkies' after the Batman has left almost no one left to buy from, Maroni has brought from overseas, a skilled hustler from the Eastern European mafia, the Blindfold Ivan's. The Cosa Nostra has formed a reluctant truce with the Joker and Scarecrow.

But after an associate to the Maroni family is found brutally murdered, a violent gang war breaks out in the streets of Gotham. But as the death toll rises, both the police and the crime syndicate have no clue as to who the killer is - except for his gruesome murders, implicative of the plays of William Shakespeare.

The Joker, Scarecrow and the hustler are determinded to get to the bottom of it before the killer gets them - while Scarecrow tries to keep a pesky third string reporter from getting too much information.
