Nightwing Dick Grayson moved to the adjoining city of Bldhaven to fight crime on his own, the Joker and Harley Quinn kidnapped Tim Drake, Dicks successor as Robin, disfigured him to look like the Joker, and tortured him for three weeks, at which point Tim revealed Batmans secrets. After the Joker sadistically taunted both Tim and Batman himself, Batman furiously attacked the Joker for what he did to Tim. During the final battle, although the Joker attempted to make Tim kill Batman, Tim turned on the Joker and killed him before suffering a mental breakdown caused by the guilt of murdering. Batman and Batgirl comforted Tim and then buried the Jokers body in a mineshaft deep beneath Arkham Asylum, while Tim was eventually rehabilitated by Dr. Leslie Thompkins but Bruce forbade to him resume his vigilante role. Terry decides to question Tim, who denies any involvement with the Joker and bitterly claims he had grown sick of his past life as Robin.

Terry tracks the Joker to the abandoned Jolly Jack Candy Factory where he instead finds Tim, who then transforms into the Joker before his eyes. The Joker confesses that when he kidnapped Robin, he secretly implanted a microchip, built from cutting edge genetics technology revealed later to have been stolen from Project Cadmus, into Tims brain. The microchip carries the Jokers consciousness and genetic material, allowing the Joker to transform Tim into a clone of himself, eventually becoming strong enough to permanently control Tims body. Terry discovers the Joker to be a formidable combatant since he has extensive knowledge of Bruces tactics as Batman. Terry improvises by using his own street fighting maneuvers and taunting the Jokers obsession with Bruce as well as his origin, sending the rogue into a fury to put him off balance.
