Having made all the proper arrangements with his entourage (that is, giving them detailed instructions for what to do to Scarecrow should the boss not return after the agreed upon 48 hours), Black Mask was prepared as he ever would be for one of the crazier enterprises he'd ever undertaken: willingly undergo "therapy" with Crane in exchange for a tank of fear toxin. Roman would have preferred simply to buy it from the Scarecrow, of course, but he hoped his plans for the chemical would far outweigh what he was about to endure.

Which, from what information he'd gleaned, would not be fun by any orthodox convention.

Then again, Black Mask was far from orthodox.
