Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: He released all the Arkham inmates in "Batman #491"

Bane and his henchmen known as Zombie, Bird and Trogg, used rocket launchers to destroy much of Arkham Asylum. They then supplied the escaped villains with many powerful firearms which they had stolen earlier. An interesting thing to note is that although "Batman #491" was not marked as part of the "Knightfall" storyline, it was still included in the "Knightfall" trade paperbacks, thus still making it part of "Knightfall"

I refer to it as "Knightfall 0". (zero)

2. When did "Detective Comics #660" detailing "Knightfall 4" come out?

Answer: Late May 93

This was the first ever "Knightfall" issue I ever read, years ago when I was very young. I recieved it when it had just come out and had no idea that that "Knightfall" was happening. I only remembered it after all these years because Bane and Killer Croc had a battle in it, with Robin caught in the middle.

3. "Knightfall 13" and "Knightfall 14" were detailed in which comic book series and which villain does Batman have to face in the two issues?

Answer: Two-Face in "Showcase #7" and "Showcase #8"

"Knightfall 13" takes place directly after "Kightfall 12" where Bruce is being watched over by Robin, Alfred and Jean-Paul/Azreal. It quickly becomes a flashback of what happened 3 weeks earlier. Batman tackles Two-Face in these two issues.

4. What happens to the little bat logo in the upper right hand corner of the covers?

Answer: It gradualy becomes a purple background with a red bat

It's like an eclipse of the sun! The logo starts off normal and then with each issue, it is slowly over taken by a purple and red logo.

5. When the Scarecrow uses his fear gas on the Joker in "Knightfall 12" detailed in "Detective Comics #664", we see what the Clown Prince of Crime is truly afraid of. What is his greatest fear?

Answer: Nothing

Thats right, he is not afraid of anything apparently. He also beats the Scarecrow with a chair afterwards and then just leaves him.

6. In "Batman #491" Robin is wearing something special when he cuts Jean-Paul's hair. This special thing can also be seen later on in the issue. What is it?

Answer: A black armband with the Superman S shield on it

The "Knightfall" storyline happened almost immediately after the "Death of Superman" story in the Superman comics. This means that both of DC's most famous heroes were put out of action at around the same time!

Also, this Robin is Tim Drake, Dick Grayson was Nightwing!

Answer: He kicks her in the chin.

This was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Batman is tired, exhausted and quite frankly, he's just had enough. He just kicks her right in the chin, knocking her out!

8. At the very end of "Knightfall 10", a severely exhausted Batman arrives back home to Wayne Manor. However, to his shock he finds Bane waiting for him. How does their inevitable fight start?

Answer: It starts in "Knightfall 11"

The whole of "Kightfall 11" was dedicated to the one sided fight of Batman and Bane. Batman was way too tired and exhausted to do anything however and recieved a nasty pounding by Bane. To top it all off, Bane broke Batman's back on his knee, effectively putting the Dark Knight out of action for a while.

9. After their fight, Bane leaves the Batcave and starts to take over many illegal operations around Gotham city. What is the first thing he does in "Knightfall 12"

Answer: He throws Batman off of a rooftop, onto the street below

It was quite shocking. You'd think he would have been decent enough to just leave Batman alone, but he threw him off of a rooftop! Luckily however, Bruce was saved by Robin, Alfred and Jean-Paul who would later take up the mantle of Batman while Bruce recovered.

Answer: His specially modified gloves

Shortly after taking over the Batman mantle from Bruce Wayne, Jean-Paul constructed his own modified gloves that were able to do such things as shoot grappling hooks by themselves. These saved his life.

This experience lead to Jean-Paul constructing a certain mechanical batsuit...
