"Skull" Dugger suffers from anhedonia, a psychological condition that robs him of the ability to experience joy, so he builds a machine that will allow him to feel it--by robbing joy and life from others at their moment of greatest pleasure.

Holy cranial busters Batman, you have been had ! Thats right boys and girls our crime fighter of Gotham got more then what he bargained for , yet again. After following a series of deaths that now looks like murder, Batman's curiiosity got the best of him. Does the Batman realize that only cats have 9 lives. He must have forgot when he put a madman's helmet on and was zapped. How can the Batman just push buttons to "see what happens" , its not a Saturday night date with the secratary Bruce.. Fastfoward to now, the Batman is now fearful to move , or say anything ! What will happen to the caped crusarder , and whats with the Comissioner calling in a surgeon ?
