The issue picks up where it left off last month, with Cass dodging around Flashpoint's CyberGrodd while the Tim, Steph and Flashpoint Catman attempt to help her. It doesn't go well, with Cass thrown heavily into the rock by Grodd so hard that she's either knocked out or physically can't move.
Luckily Steph works out that, since Catman is the official contestant against the preboot Bat Folk, if one of them surrenders then that'll end the fight by transporting them back to their cities... in theory. Steph says that if Catman doesn't do it, she will in order to save Cass and the other folks at home, but Catman concedes that since everyone he cares about is dead, he'll take a dive instead.
Steph punches him, while he lies on the ground and pretends to be knocked out while she declares herself to be the winner. Luckily this seems to work, because the dude controlling this scheme might be god-like but he's also kind of a moron. Catman uses the opportunity to make Grodd grab him, thus whisking them both back to their city away from Steph and co.

Wait, did he imply that Flashpoint Grodd has human wives/sexual partners like the DCAU version, or that they're also talking gorillas and that Catman will have sex with them regardless... either way, EWWWW!
A little later, Cass is in hospital and Steph and Tim have evidently repaired their (unhealthy) relationship while she was recovering. It's covered more in the pages I'm not posting here, but basically Tim is still interested in Steph and vice versa.



Yeah, Cass can tell when people want to bang from their bodylanguage. It's weird, but it's also canon so...
The issue ends with Steph and Tim attempting to make out but failing due to their Grodd-induced injuries. They decide to snuggle instead.

Well, that was an okay two parter. Okay, not great. According to Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo Cass'll be making her proper DCnU debut in the immediate future (possibly within the post-Endgame storyline), which I'm looking forward to at least.

Hey, I like that someone's remembering the thing that's central to her character. Even if using it a bit odd.
