This Issue contains several graphic stories, including: Batgirl & Robin: "Isle of a Thousand Thrills!" - Batgirl and Robin learn each other's secret identities. * "The Challenge of Batwoman" - Kathy Kane, still bound by her promise to Batman, not to assume her Batwoman identity to fight crime, does it nonetheless to go to a costume party. At the same time, Batman and Robin are carrying out an attack on the mob of a mysterious, masked gang boss who is attempting to loot the mail car of a passing train. In the chase, Batman twists his ankle and is rendered helpless. The masked gangster, whose mask covers the same area of his face as Batman's, tries to escape on the train but is choked by its smoke and falls off, hitting the ground so hard he gets amnesia. * "Crimes of the Kite-Man" - Batman and Robin arrive at a penthouse party for a visiting Indian Rajah when a mysterious box-kite begins dropping tear gas bombs on the party-goers. This serves as a well-enough diversion for Kite-Man, using his jet-kite, to steal the Rajah's ruby. Although Robin manages to lasso the villain's leg, Kite-Man continues his escape. The Boy Wonder loses his grip and falls safely into a rooftop water tank. * "The Year 3000" - Saturnian warlord Fura's robotic forces conquer Earth on April 19, 3000. Shortly thereafter, Brane (the newly-enslaved descendant of Bruce Wayne) and his young counterpart Ricky find a time capsule containing an audio-visual recording of the original Batman and Robin in action. The duo are inspired to strike back at their alien overlord in the guise of the Dynamic Duo. Eventually, the new Batman and Robin succeed in leading Earth's people to victory against the tyrant from space. : Color Illustrations .
