A man came to Gotham
from London to hire Slam Bradly to find his kidnapped fiancee. The
gang that took her broke in and captured him as well. Bradly gave
chase, but not even intervention from Batman and Robin stopped the
kidnappers. Bradly tracked down a friend of the first victim, from
her he learned that his client's real name was Moriarty, hers was
Watson. Elongated Man got into 221B Baker Street in London - goons
were after an unpublished Sherlock Holmes manuscript. Batman and
Robin joined Elongated Man and Slam Bradly in London. They
uncovered a plot against the royal family and took action - in the
palace, Batman was unexpectedly assisted by a still very much
alive Sherlock Holmes. The master detective explained to the group
how he'd survived all the years. |
