    Batman returns to Gotham to face a new threat in the form of The Globe, a map-obsessed mastermind who charts his crimes with deadly accuracy. After Batman stops The Globe and gets back a jewel-covered globe, Ra's arrives with ninjas, and takes the globe from Batman. Batman decides to put a stop to Ra's, and captures him and puts him in an insane asylum under the name of Terry Gene Kase.
