Synopsis

THE FLYING BATMAN Batman and Robin are chasing a suspicious man, when suddenly the man starts flying with his own wings and he attacks the Dynamic Duo, rendering them unconscious with a sting and taking them away from Gotham City. The heroes wake up in a weird city inhabited by winged men, who want to operate on Batman to give him wings in order to track down a family of winged men that has been terrorizing their valley. Batman agrees and he is given bat wings, which help him fly through the sky. Batman and Robin then manage to defeat the winged villains and after their successful mission, they are returned to Gotham after Batman's wings are removed. THE MAN WHO COULD CHANGE FINGERPRINTS! A criminal called Lew Farnum has a plastic surgeon change his face and fingerprints and then commits crimes in order to convince his fellow criminals that he can have the same done for them if they will steal for him. However, when the Dynamic Duo become involved in this case, they discover that Farnum's fingerprint removal is a complete hoax and the wrath of the underworld is unleashed against Farnum, who is sent back to prison again. THE OLYMPIC GAMES OF CRIME! In order to settle the argument of who are the best criminals, Dimples Drew prepares the "Olympics of Crime" and a sudden wave of criminal raids begins in Gotham. Batman learns of this event and infiltrates as one of the contestants, but Dimples becomes aware of Batman's presence and he alerts all the criminals in the place. Batman's wits save him from death at the hands of the other criminals and after tricking them with a dummy of himself, Batman gives word to the police of the secret location, allowing the authorities to capture a large number of criminals in one night.
