Second serial featuring the comic book character Batman. In it, Batman, together with his sidekick Robin, face off against the Wizard, a hooded villain with an electronic device that remotely controls vehicles.

Antisocial Prof. Hammil's Remote Control device, which enables the user to take over any motor vehicle within 50 miles, is stolen by black-hooded mastermind The Wizard and his gang. Batman and Robin (who drive about in a standard convertible) must prevent the Wizard from obtaining diamonds, needed as fuel for the device, and rescue magazine photographer Vicki Vale from periodic perils. Where is the Wizard's base, reached only by remote-controlled submarine? Which of several suspicious characters hides beneath the Wizard's hood?—Rod Crawford <[email protected]>

Batman (Robert Lowery) and Robin-The Boy Wonder (Johnny Duncan), whose real identities are Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson, are asked for help by Police Commissioner Jim Gordon (Lyle Talbot) of Gotham City in his search for a Remote-Control machine stolen by a mysterious cloaked-and-hooded figure known only as The Wizard. The machine was invented by eccentric Professor Hammil (William Fawcett), aided by his valet Carter (Leonard Penn).—Les Adams <[email protected]>
