Seeing his demise, Otto Netz decided to groom his two children that he had made namely Elisabeth and Katarina. The two sisters were to be his finest creations where at one point when they were ready they were to take his mental patterns into herself and become Netz reborn. Thus, this child would become Doctor Dedalus again as Spyder whilst the other would become the Leviathan to challenge the other. (Grayson v1 #14)
She made her way to the Batcave during Batman's fight with Talia al Ghul where she snuck in with no one noticing. During that moment, Kathy stated that Batman did not kill and shot a bullet into Talia's head thus killing her. She then reported to Spyral that their target was neutralized and told Bruce not to follow her as she did not exist whereupon she disappeared. (Batman Incorporated v2 #13)
