THE JOKER SEES RED, BATMAN HUNTS THE DEAD

A new villain known as the Red Hood rampages across Gotham, claiming a vendetta against the Joker. His demands are simple: the Joker is to be surrendered to him at Gotham Cemetery by midnight, or deadlier crimes will ensue. In response, Batman and Robin travel to the Arkham Institute and convene with officials Professor Overbeck and Dr. Holly Quinn, who agree to temporarily release the Joker as bait for the Red Hood.  Near midnight, the Joker is delivered to the cemetery, and almost immediately captured by the Red Hood. However, the Red Hood inflicts no harm; indeed, his gang consists entirely of the Joker's own men, who explain the whole "vendetta" was only an elaborate breakout scheme. To his surprise, and delight, the Joker finds the Red Hood is none other than Professor Overbeck, who had tried to control Arkham's inmates with his newly-invented "brain regulator", but was overpowered by the Joker's brainwaves and corrupted into supervillainy.  Regardless, the Joker's freedom proves short-lived, as Batman and Robin had fit him with a tracking device beforehand. In a matter of minutes, the Dynamic Duo find and subdue all the villains, in the process freeing Overbeck from his own invention. As the Joker and his men are taken away, Batman warns that the brain regulator must be incarcerated as well, as the Joker's brainwaves may continue to exist within.

SCRAMBLED EGGS

Batman and Robin are captured by Egghead, locked inside a glass capsule, and hurled from Egghead's private zeppelin several hundred feet above the ground. However, thanks to Batman's quick thinking, Robin's acrobat training, and Egghead's sheer arrogance (which had left their utility belts untouched), the Dynamic Duo escape their prison long before impact, then summon the Bat-Copter to pursue their egg-obsessed foe.  To his horror, Egghead soon finds his zeppelin commandeered by the Bat-Copter's superior technology, and driven directly back to Gotham State Penitentiary.
