(Modern Age: New Earth): "At some point Hush seemly decides that Black Mask has earned his attention, and Hush employs Murmur to help him take down Black Mask's empire by killing several of Mask's employees and blame Kirk Langstorm for the murders. Like most of Hush's plans this involves many twist and turns, that end up with Hush double crossing Murmur, almost killing Black Mask and forcing Batman to almost kill Kirk. In the end Hush's plan seems to fail but he does kill the human psyche of Man-Bat, making Man-Bat a feral version on his former self".
