BATMAN: THE ZODIAC CRIMES (TV)
Summary
One in this series of comedy adventure programs about the Batman, a crimefighting superhero, and his youthful sidekick Robin. In part one of this three-part episode, the Joker embarks on a string of robberies known as "The Zodiac Crimes," so named because each crime relates to an astrological sign. The Joker and his partner-in-crime, the Penguin, bait Batman and Robin with clues that lure them to the wrong locations. The Caped Crusaders manage to catch the Penguin and send him to jail, but are betrayed by Venus, a young woman who is in league with the evil Joker. Batman and Robin are captured by the Joker, who intends to destroy them by dropping a giant meteor on them. Includes commercials. Continues with T:25337, "The Joker's Hard Times."
