Detective Comics (1937-) #524

Batman escapes the Squid�s giant-squid death trap, but the Squid himself is assassinated by Croc. Green Arrow finally defeats the Executrix with reflector-signal arrows and pumps her for information about Machiavelli. In the meantime, Machiavelli is huddling with the Wall Street Irregulars and convinces them that criminals can run Star City�s government better than its elected officials. Later, Machiavelli and his group crash a town meeting on the anti-strike clause, at which the villain gives a political speech and is greeted with �Mac for Mayor!� cries.
