This story recaps the history of the Bronze Tiger.

Synopsis:
Ben Turner is called before Sarge Steel to answer for his actions in taking a team to Apokolips. Turner's history is brought up including his propensity toward violence and his time with the League of Assassins. Turner claims that he is under control and has put his past behind him. Steel taunts him using a replica of Turner's old tiger mask. Ben eventually snaps under the pressure and storms out. Steel decides that it is time to shut down the Squad.

Elsewhere, Jewelee learns that she is pregnant, and the Damballah continues his efforts to use drugs to recruit a zombie army.
