Synopsis:
The Joker embarks on a series of moon related crimes. He is nearly caught by Batman while staging a robbery at the Gotham City Planetarium. After escaping he steals an anti-gravity machine from Dr. Doomer. Using the machine, he is able to kidnap Batman and Robin when they try to stop his next crime. He then attempts to trick the Dynamic Duo by making them think that they have been sent to the moon. Batman's astute observation of a stalagmite on the surface of the phony moon scene helps him see through the Joker's ruse. He and Robin then capture the Joker and his gang. The anti-gravity machine is destroyed during the fight.
