Synopsis:
A hurricane throws the Batplane containing Batman and Robin into another dimension. They are mistaken for Bat-People and taken prisoner by the queen's army. When the real Bat-People attack, Batman rescues the queen proving himself to be good. Batman then helps the queen by exposing his traitorous minister Arko. Finally Batman ignites a coal deposit in a nearby ravine which will prevent the Bat-People from attacking for years. The resulting explosion hurls the Batplane back to Earth.
