Synopsis:
After Joker is returned to jail by Batman, he decides to reverse his fortune with a series of reverse crimes. First he escapes from prison by diverting attention by making the guards think he has already escaped. Then he announces his crimes before committing them. Batman and Robin follow the Joker trying to stop the crime spree. When they learn that the Joker is planning to steal a gold shipment, Batman and Robin set a trap. Though their plan doesn't work as designed, the Caped Crusaders are still able to defeat the Joker and return him to jail.
