Throwback Thursday takes us back to the 1966 Batman TV-series starring Adam West as Batman and Burt Ward as Robin. The Penguin‘s (Burgess Meredith) men kidnap Alfred (Alan Napier) to brainwash the butler in cluing them into the time and location of a multi-millionaires dinner. After releasing the brainwashed butler back into the wild, Penguin leaves a clue to lure Batman and a Robin into one of the series’ weirder traps on the Gotham Pier involving pop-up umbrellas and exploding balloons. The episode also works in the woman (Julie Gregg) of Penguin’s crew as part of the larger plot to take the place of a beauty pageant winner and offer the distraction to rob the millionaires.

Shadow War: Omega

Shadow War: Omega comes to a close here with Geo-Force revealed to be the killer behind the death of Ra’s al Ghul and the attempts on the lives of both Talia al Ghul and Deathstroke as vengeance for what Leviathan did to his home country of Markovia. I’d say the story ends rather than concludes as the epilogue to Geo-Force’s defeat feeds right into Dark Crisis (which is actually already started before this story wraps).
