I found this new post on the Bat Boards rather interesting:
quote:
In "Dead Reckoning" the current story line in Detective which just wrapped up, the main bad guy is Paul Sloan, a little known character with an appparent mad on for Two-Face. Not only is this guy's face horribly scarred, (just like, supposedly, Hush) he has a coin like Two-Face's except its scratched on both sides. (like the one we saw Hush flipping around in Batman #614). At the end of the story he is in a hospital bed in Arkham (but we all know how easy it is to escape from that place. Tommy Elliot is a doctor right? Maybe Elliot helped Sloan escape and in return for offering to use his skills as a surgeon to fix his face, Sloan agrees to make Batman's life a living hell. For Elliot to have a grudge against Batman though he would have to know that he is really Bruce Wayne and maybe he does. It would certainly explain a few of his more cryptic comments. Sloan gets tired of waiting for Elliot to make good on his promise and offs him (making it look like Joker did it). Now you know. At least that's my theory. How bout it Jeph ?
