I, Bailey Jack, am a devoted wage slave.
I carry out every order from my bosses to perfection. If they tell me to shoot someone in the knee, I never hit the ankle. A model employee through and through.
I have a mutant ability that lets me create weaknesses, and people call me “Bailey with the Cane.” My mom's in a mental health facility (not Arkham!) and I joined the Brotherhood. I even have to work for the boss for free from time to time. Just your average mutant's life.
But my ordinary life didn't last long.
Yes, I just switched bosses and went to work in Gotham, where I met my dad, whom I hadn't seen in the twenty-one years since I was born.
Well, shit. This is where it gets interesting.

I hadn't even had time to celebrate that my dad was Gotham's richest man before I had to despair over the fact that he was also Batman.
Between you and me, if my new boss weren't the Penguin, and if I hadn't used my mutant powers to beat my brother, the guy with the red bucket on his head, to a bloody pulp, and then hit my dad when he came to help, maybe there'd still be some chance of fixing the fact that I'm a mercenary with blood on my hands.
Now there's no chance, and my happiness is gone too.
I even got transferred to a new guardian! I'm stuck in a room with that black-clad guy!
Well, I'll be damned.
