Synopsis:
Atkins, a stockholder in the Hobbs Clock Company, has killed two other stockholders using exotic clocks as murder weapons. He tries to frame the crazy old man who built the clocks, Brock. Batman identifies the pattern and protects the next intended victim, Peter Selby. Brock kills Atkins when he learns that he is being used; then the old man plans to blow up the Hobbs clock tower. Batman and Robin prevent the disaster, and Brock falls to his death.
