In "The $1,000,000 Star Club!", artist Jan Marki, wronged by an insurance company that refuses to value his talent at a million dollars, takes a dark turn after crippling his own hands. Now determined to punish the elite few deemed worthy of such a fortune, he traps Gotham’s most famous insured—including Batman and Robin—in a mansion rigged with deadly traps. With time running out, Batman must outwit the booby-traps and rally the unlikely talents of the trapped stars to survive and stop Marki’s twisted revenge.
