Batman captures the wanted criminal Blackie Nason and he is brought to the GCPD Headquarters, where the Police take mugshots of his face and it becomes part of the the Police "Rogue's Gallery." So after he escapes from prison, he has plastic surgery, then sets up his "Gallery of Undercover Cops." However, in a desperate plan to get enough money to escape from Gotham, he makes up an identity and accidentally uncovers the true identity of Batman, just wanting to scam the underworld element.
Batman realizes that Nason has spread out his true identity and he stops the criminals who try to kill Bruce Wayne. His appearance confuses the criminals and Batman's secret identity remains intact.
