Synopsis for "The Origin of Doctor Phosphorus"

Dr. Phosphorus breaks into the home of Gotham City Council member Dr. Bell and reveals his origin to him. Phosphorus was once Dr. Alex Sartorius, who was transformed by sand irradiated during a nuclear plant’s meltdown, driven up one element on the chemical table, from silicon to phosphorus. Now he has sworn to make Gotham pay, and demands that Bell use the city council to stop Batman from interfering with him, or die. Bell calls the Council’s head man, Boss Rupert Thorne.
