Bill Jordan has studied his entire life to become an archaeologist and adventurer. When he is invited on an African expedition, he fails his physical due to a heart condition. Bill is forced to take a job at the museum and miss the excitement.

An international thief known as the Globetrotter has come to Gotham City. Batman and Robin trail the crook and meet Jordan in the process. Jordan helps the Dynamic Duo track and capture the crooks. Jordan's heart handles the excitement of the chase, so he is retested. The doctor discovers his original prognosis was wrong, and Jordan is cleared to join the expedition.
