with a statue of the god and how he experienced an
excruciating pain when she blew on them. Later he looks in
the mirror and finds he has grown horns. He realizes that
the syrinx, or pipes, may be the cure but he has to find
them because they have been stolen. To hide what has
happened he adopts Batman's cowl and cape in place of his
own cape. He uses the horns to capture the superstitious
thief before the spell dissipates taking the horns with
them. He tells Bruce about the episode and asks, "How do
you ever manage to scare anyone in that get-up of yours?"
