Synopsis for Batman: "The Origin of the Bat-Cave!"
Batman and Robin find an ancient object in the Batcave and Batman tells Robin the story of how he found the Batcave shortly after buying Wayne Manor. They go to an expert to find out more information about the ancient object and they learn of a secret message for "a man with two identities". In order to learn more of the mystery behind this message, Batman and Robin ask their trusted friend Professor Nichols to send them back in time to the 17th Century, where they meet Jeremy Coe, the first man to discover the Batcave, who used it as headquarters on his battle against the Native Americans. The Dynamic Duo assist Coe on his endeavour and after a successful mission, they return to the present, finally learning that the object's message was left by the natives for Coe.
