This week, Clay and Sean discuss “I’ve Got Batman in My Basement” and “Heart of Ice”!
During a fight with Batman over a stolen Fabergé egg, the Penguin incapacitates Batman with poison gas. The Dark Knight is rescued by a teenage amateur detective named Sherman Grant and his friend Roberta, who hide Batman in Sherman’s basement long enough for him to recover before the Penguin finds them. It’s I’ve Got Batman in My Basement!
Then, in Heart of Ice, bitter scientist Victor Fries (Mr. Freeze), attacks several divisions of GothCorp, each time stealing a piece for a secret weapon he intends to build. Batman investigates the connections and discovers that the start of Freeze’s vendetta against GothCorp was a bitter falling out between Fries and GothCorp’s CEO, Ferris Boyle, during which Boyle almost killed Fries (mutating him into Freeze) and presumably killed Fries’ terminally ill wife, Nora. Batman must find a way to bring Boyle to justice before Freeze carries out his revenge.
