In "Half a hero…", Two-Face, freshly escaped from Arkham, orchestrates a dangerous scheme with Margo, a woman he met behind bars, to capture Batman. With Mayor Hill pressuring the city, Commissioner Gordon is forced to resign, leaving Gotham’s streets vulnerable as the villain’s plan unfolds.
In a Gotham where Batman has vanished, Robin grapples with growing fear—unaware he’s been captured by Two-Face, who’s using the chaos to tighten his grip. Meanwhile, Vicki Vale confides in Alfred that she’s uncovered Bruce Wayne’s secret, and as police commissioner Thorne’s man Pauling takes control of the force, the city’s fate hangs in the balance.
In "The Deadliest Show on Earth!", Dick enjoys a day at the circus—until he spots Waldo the clown, only to realize the man doesn’t remember him. As Robin digs deeper, he uncovers a web of hypnotic control gripping the circus workers, and a chilling revelation: Superman himself is being manipulated by a hidden enemy.
In "Stealer of Souls," Batgirl faces off against the enigmatic Dr. Voodoo, whose dark magic targets priceless diamonds. As the stakes rise, a shocking twist unfolds when the assistant district attorney arrives to arrest Barbara Gordon—on charges of murder.
