    When Oracle (Barbara Gordon) sends Black Canary on a cruise to investigate the disappearance of some of high society's most upper-crust members, the tables quickly turn, and Canary finds herself imprisoned in a mastermind's stronghold with the psychotic Hellhound hot on her trail.

    Oracle has a special computer delivered to Dinah's so that they can communicate easier giving her a mission in Rheelasia while elsewhere Hellhound chases two escapees feeding them to several dogs. Dinah then boards a ship for a "vacation" as she heads to Rheelasia to get close to a man called Jackie Pamerjanian. That night Black Canary infiltrates the compound her target is staying in, finding his safe which Oracle hacks remotely, as she enters she finds millions in Rolex watches,and jars containing severed human body parts.

    She then leaves spying on the arriving Pamerjanian, to see who he is with a man who Oracle herself knows,Jason Bard. As Oracle gives the details of her relationship with Bard, two men sneak up on the unknowing Canary.
