Batman and Robin follow the trail of several criminals who want to obtain a mysterious box, but every time one of them manages to get it and open it, they are shocked to see the content inside and soon they are killed by the next criminal who wants to retrieve the box. When Batman finally gets the box, he tracks down the owner, who is in fact the notorious criminal Diamond King.
