"The most unlikely-looking foes reveal themselves to be the most dangerous." - Alfred Pennyworth

Ulysses Hadrian Armstron, a.k.a. the General, makes his return to the pages of Robin after a short stint in a "youth study center." Not wanting Ulysses to return to his nefarious ways, Robin makes a home vist to warn the General that he is under observation.

A trip to the toy store brings the General face to face with Toyman, fresh from his escape off of Stryker's Island (see Robin #35), whom he idealizes for his army toyline.

Toyman sees an impressionable young boy that he can use for his own plans...namely stealing a rar action figure from the vault of an eccentric toy collector.
