Batman Cast

Holy Houdini! Before the Penguin can electrify the pool into which Police Chief O’Hara and his metal prison have fallen, Batman uses his Batshield to protect himself from the bullets fired by the fowl felon’s henchmen, and then places a Batinverser over the electrical lines, causing the trunk holding the Chief to be repelled onto dry land. Using Batpellets to render the criminals unconscious, the Dynamic Duo rescue their colleague and apprehend the Penguin. Later, at the wicked waddler’s trial, the Dynamic Duo act as prosecutors; however, before the penguin can be sent to his intended destination of the Gotham State Prison, his spirited defence backfires and he is released. Setting a trap, the Caped Crusader and Boy Wonder disguise Alfred as master forger Quill-Pen Quertch and then send him to ‘The Penguin's Nest’. But the plan goes wrong when the Penguin sees through the deception, and he sends the butler to sleep with gas and then rolls him into a giant pie…
