Black Mask and his False-Facers continued to play roles in several different events where Gotham's organized crime was concerned. When the vigilante Lock-Up surfaced in Gotham, for instance, Batman (in coordination with the Gotham City Police Department) used one of the False-Facers as bait, publicizing the man's role as an informant for the police. Though the trap was primarily intended for Lock-Up (who would logically be enraged at seeing a criminal "walk" without serving his sentence), Batman had correctly anticipated that Black Mask would be after the man as well; along with Robin (Tim Drake) and Nightwing, he easily beat back the squad of False-Facers that Black Mask sent to kill the "traitor".[6]
