Writer: Paul Levitz
Artists: Marcus To
Description: On the hunt for a dangerous game...The Huntress, Gotham's mysterious vigilante, will hunt down evil no matter where it takes her. This time it's to Naples to shut down a shipment of Gotham-bound illegal weapons before it can even hit the water. Helena [Wayne] cracks the container but finds it's transporting more than just guns. She uncovers a human trafficking ring, and with it, a new reason to go on the hunt. As the Huntress tracks the source up the ranks of the city's underworld, she's astounded how high the corruption goes. Once she uncovers a conspiracy of Italy's most dangerous gangsters, high-ranking government officials and foreign powers, the situation becomes especially perilous for one lone vigilante with a crossbow.
