BATMAN: BATMAN IS RILED (TV)
Summary
One in this series of comedy adventure programs about Batman, a crimefighting superhero, and his youthful sidekick Robin. In part two of this two-part episode, after a brief review of part one, "The Joker Is Wild" (cataloged as T:35968), Batman and Robin elude being unmasked on live television, but the Joker escapes their grasp by using his own utility belt. Later, Batman and Robin attempt to capture the Joker and his henchmen as they rob a warehouse containing priceless artifacts. The criminals and the dynamic duo engage in a fight -- which does not feature the usual comic subtitles. In the end, the Joker and his henchmen get away. As news reports spread that Batman and Robin have met their match, a crime wave surges in Gotham City. Batman and Robin find that they must stop the Joker not only to save their own reputation but to protect the citizens of Gotham City from the criminal element. Commercials deleted.
