Synopsis:
Batman and Robin are captured and taken to a remote island by a crook named Jundy. Jundy then blackmails Superman into obtaining three apparently worthless objects for him. While Superman is completing the tasks, the Caped Crusaders discover that Jundy is assembling the fabled Sorcerer King’s Sceptre, a device of incredible power. They delay Jundy long enough for Superman to return and stop him from completing the sceptre.
