Story
Gotham City's elite have gathered at the Harborside Theater to celebrate the most prestigious "Man of the Year" award ceremony. Unfortunately for the nominees, the city's most notorious villains have a much grander soiree in mind!

The Dynamic Duo has managed to capture many of Gotham City's runaway villains in the theatre, but the Joker has proved too elusive. Now, the Clown Prince of Crime is attempting to make a getaway by speedboat. Can Batman and Robin catch this runaway maniac before it's too late?

Wouldn't you know it? Batman has finally captured the JOker, but another jailbreak has occurred at Arkham Asylum, courrtesy of Lex Luthor and his Deconstructor. This time, however, the Caped Crusader isn't about to let those vile villains get away. Batman and Robin arrive on the scene just in time to head off the inmates' escape route within the Asylum's courtyard maze!

Batman and Robin have succeeded in catching all of Arkham's fleeing inmates- all of them except one, that is. The Joker is still on the loose, having secretly teamed up with that ingenious rat, Lex Luthor. Rather than waiting for Joker to make his move, the Dynamic Duo decide to take the initiative and search Arkham Asylum for clues.

During their search of Arkham Asylum, the Dynamic Duo discovered trace amountes of radiations left behind by Lex Luthor's diabolical Deconstructor. This can only mean one thing: Luthor and the Joker must be working together! Before Batman and Robin can ponder their relationship, they're informed of a violent break-in at the Ace Chemicals factory.

With the aid of his Batcomputer, the Caped Crusader has discovered the purpose of the Joker's thievery at Ace Chemicals. The stolen components could only be used to create an approximation of Kryptonite - the lone substance known to harm Superman! Kryptonite is extremely rare, making it easy to trace. It's not long before the Dynamic Duo discover a local source of the substance - it's on the move through Gotham City's streets!

The Dynamic Duo has succeeded in claiming a sample of the Joker's cooked-up Kryptonite, but lab tests back at the Batcave reveal that the substance is flawed and poses no threat to natives of Krypton. Before they can reason out why the Joker would want to chef up such a worthless crystal, an alarm sounds - The Joker and Lex Luthor have tracked the false Kryptonite and discovered the Batcave!

Lex Luthor and the Joker's dastardly raid on the Batcave has proved worthwhile - the villains have made off with Batman's secret stash of Kryptonite! With the aid of Superman, the Caped Crusader now races off to catch Luthor's high-tech airship before Lex and the Joker can mane good their escape.

Having had enough of Lex and the Joker's games, Batman and Superman decide to go right to the source and visit the LexCorp offices in Metropolis. Lex had anticipated this, however, and as devised a nasty little welcoming committee for our heroes.

Batman's infiltration of LexCorp has proven fruitful. With the aid of Superman, the Caped Crusader has uncoverd Luthor's sinister scheme. Lex has been busy - he's construced a monstrious, flying robit in the likeness of the Joker! Luthor plans on using this doomsday machine to spread a mind-altering gas across all of Gotham City. Once the population has been gassed, they'll be putty in Luthor's hands! Batman must somehow stop this dastardly plot, or Lex will easily earn the votes he needs to become the next president of the United States!

The towering Joker robot is down, but not out! Gearing up to go on a full-on rampage through Gotham City's panic-stricken streets, the mechanical monstrosity pauses only to pound Superman and Batman with its hulking fist. The tremendous impact knocks out heroes right through the street and into the subway below!

Batman and Superman may have escaped their predicament in Gotham City's subway, but that monstrious Joker robot is still on the loose! Racing to City Hall, our heroes find Lex Luthor in the midst of his laughable campaign speech - and also arrive just in time to witness the Joker's mind-altering gas wash over the crowd of unsuspecting voters! Something mush be done to stop this evil scheme!

Thanks to the heroic efforts of Batman and Superman, Lex Luthor won't be cheating his way into the White House any time soon. But the terrible Joker robot is still on the rampage! Now our heroes must struggle to rid Gotham City of this monstrous meance!

With his election campaign in a shambles, Lex Luthor has little left to accomplish in Gotham City. Nevertheless, Lex decides to use his doomsday robot for one last antic: the Deconstruction of Wayne Tower! Unfortunately for Luthor, the Joker robot's rampage has drawn plenty of attention, and the entire Justice League is now on the case!

The Joker robot's epic descent from the top of Wayne Towe has caused it immense damage, yet the monstrous machine still functions. The time has come for the Justice League to unite and finish off this crazed contraption once and for all!
