During the 1930s, The Bat sets about modernising the backward Duchy of Stahl, over which his dynasty has ruled since 1410 A.D..

In 1941, with the German war machine threatening Europe,  The Bat is  involved in experiments with the infamous Count Cogliostro. One of these experiments involves suspended animation and The Bat decides that  he will be the test subject. When he wakes,The Bat finds that not days have gone by but 51 years!

Worse, his kingdom is in ruins and an enclave of of Stahlias greatest historical enemy -Kamora. The Bat tries politics to win back his homeland and when that fails he decides to fight for it!

However, he is unaware that some old, and new, enemies are lying in wait to stop him and all of them want one thing: The Bat dead!

Originally a back up strip in Black Tower Adventure in 1994,The Bat proved very popular as an anti-hero. The story was never completed. It is now. New edition -added art pages
