Detective Comics #6 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)

All right, let's see if I followed the story correctly:  the one-eyed woman, known as Chase or Jill, killed some street kid to get information on a bomb maker who she then killed to obtain some C-4.  I'm not sure why she would need to have killed the kid to get to the bomb maker, since we're told that the bomb maker was a "bad man with a lot of money," which makes it sound to me like he would've been pretty easy to find for anyone with connections in the underworld.  At this point, we also don't know why Chase (or Jill) wants to blow up the Iceberg Casino, but we do know that she was the one that stole the briefcase last issue.  (We still don't know why the two men were exchanging a briefcase of cash in a dark alley, but I'm guessing that I should just make my peace with that lack of clarity and try to move to the next confusing plot twist.)  We do know that she's working with a guy named Snakeskin and that she expects to make enough money off this job to move to Costa Rica.  But, we don't know what the job is.  I'm not really sure how blowing up the Iceberg Casino will get her that money, but we'll see.  Unfortunately, she also has to stop her investigative-reporter sister, who just so happens to be at the Iceberg Casino because she's looking into a gun-smuggling ring and because she's Bruce Wayne's date.  Yeah, I know.
