Upon finding out that Croc is planning to kill Batman, the Joker gathers all of Batman's enemies together in an attempt to kill Batman first. Robin finds out that Croc has killed Jason Todd's parents. Jason discovers the Batcave, and puts on an old costume of Dick's from when he was part of the Flying Graysons, and stows away in the Batmobile. When Batman teams with Catwoman, Talia, Robin, and Batgirl to battle the villains and to take down Croc, Jason lends a hand to help defeat Croc. With the Todds dead, Bruce decides to take Jason in to raise him.
