Full magic trick in effect - a poof of smoke and Andrea is GONE. I guess Bruce now knows how it feels to be on the receiving end of this. Joker calls out to him from the shadows and just the sight and sound of this clown is enough to infuriate Batman. I'M GONNA BASH YOU GOOD! Let's creep through WB town now... The next episode follows on Friday. Sa…

Batman stares at Andrea’s locket. The two of them, so in love. Could she possibly be the villain? Nah, no chance! Suddenly, a phone call. Who's on the line? IT'S THE JOKER, BABY! That'll teach Bats not to answer other people's phones while snooping. Still, at least he's about to get a gift... via airmail too! How fancy. The next episode follows on …

Arthur finishes his explanation for how he’s ended up going down the rabbit hole. It's a bit of a soft excuse though, dude... I'm not buying your innocence here.

He ends up in the hospital with a little bit of a giggle. A giggle that can't stop, won't stop... will n…

The Joker muses on who could be doing all of this - surely it’s somebody who wouldn’t mind seeing their old pals out of the way… and presumably these two next! Or maybe it's ol' Arturo himself who's been behind it all... RING RING - answer that phone but keep your trap shut about who you're hanging out with, buddy - OR ELSE! The next episode follow…

Bruce just admits it - yes, he does love Andrea. He flirts with the idea of maybe, MAYBE, being together once all of this is said and done. Maybe the two of them could be like his parents after all?

Andrea received the ol’ finger guns. BANG BANG! How's daddy? Ready to run, that's the plan anyway... and Andrea better be ready to join in too or it could be curtains for her and not just pops.

A puff of smoke and the Phantasm is on the move, ready to clear out Valestra's abode. What's this? He's relaxing in a chair, just ready for the taking?

She has another date in mind, however - a date with…

The Joker shoves Valestra down into his chair. Not out of anger, oh no… he just wants to know what’s on his mind! Of course... Sal reveals why he’s here - it’s all about The Bat. First he whacked Chuckie Sol, then Buzz and now he’s after Valestra. Guano Man, really? Sal has a fair point for him too - once The Bat gets done with him, surely he’ll go…

Sal wanders the remnants of a hopeful world, taking in all of the misery and depression that has taken the place of a joyous future ideal. Lovely isn't it? Machine gun fire! Is it a trap?
