Synopsis:

Commissioner Gordon and the assistant coroner investigate the deaths of numerous men including a number of high-profile sportsmen, all of them dressed in a Batman costume. Bruce Wayne appears to be next on the killer's list of targets, but has a lucky escape from an acid-lined costume sent to him in the mail. But the identity and motives of the killer are still entirely unclear.
