Synopsis:

Using the information provided by Oracle, Catwoman tracks down the last survivor of the last Clench outbreak, Leonare We, an Innuit living in Miami. She rescues Leonare from a gang of drug dealers who have a grudge against her boyfriend, and brings her back to Gotham, encountering Tracker on the way. However, she soon learns from Batman what he already knew - the blood of Clench survivors is no good as an antidote, and Gotham seems to be doomed.
