Wally Dodd, the creator of the Skyland, a floating amusement park, is murdered. Batman and Robin investigate and learn that Dodd had evidence against a saboteur. They locate and capture the saboteur, Blinky Cole, but Cole didn’t kill Dodd. Batman plants a trap for Dodd’s other associates. The killer turns out to be Al Bates, a night club owner who stood to inherit half of Skyland from Dodd. Batman and Robin capture Bates, and Skyland is opened to the public.
