All villains are equal, but some are more equal than others

[jla-extras.livejournal.com]

Alcatraz was cracked open and the prisoners spilled free eagerly, but not everyone was spirited off the Rock. Some prisoners had only themselves to blame for that: they were too distracted by the chance to take revenge against the guards or the prison itself to grasp the larger freedom that awaited them across the Bay. As for the rest of the population....

A select few were taken directly to the mainland.

Many others were supplied with inflatable rafts equipped with small lightweight engines.

Some were given inflatable rafts and a set of oars.

Others, either through desperation or cunning, headed for the prison's own docks, where official motorboats awaited those able to overpower the guards.

The warden barricaded himself in his office and continued to sound the mayday, hoping that some help--any help--would arrive soon, before the Rock crumbled into the waters.

Robin to Nightwing - Shiv's contained and on her way back to Alcatraz courtesy of the Starfire Express. What's your status, bro?

He'll catch the familiar sound of bones breaking.

Nightwing here. Still bringing in the trash. Feel free to join the party. Any clues as to which of Light's buddies provided the non-standard-issue inflatable rafts?

Actually, yeah. Shiv let slip that Shimmer's been helping the escapees.

And where there's Shimmer...

The rage rises anew, and bodies hit the deck.

...there's Mammoth. And both of them work for Light.

What are the odds of them hanging around to watch the chaos?
