Deadman takes over his brother's body to spend some time on the trapeze, and remembers how he became Deadman. But he is shot (again) while in Cleveland's body. Deadman manages to keep his brother alive and tracks down the shooter. But once possessed by Deadman, the shooter kills himself without Deadman being able to stop him. The prevailing theory is that the killer was sent by Russians who want to bring Cleveland's wife back to Russia.
