Synopsis for "Welcome to Creepsville"

Batman arrives to tussle with the Joker. Dr. Yatz decides it's time to depart. Leaving Creeper and the abomination formerly known as Gavin Sullivan strapped down, he knocks out the Dark Knight by injecting him with a serum from behind. Before leaving, Joker tells the Creeper that they are family because there was Joker Venom in the concoction that Dr. Yatz injected him with, which turned him into the Creeper. The Joker then goes to shoot Batman, but discovers that he has the wrong gun – a gag gun. The Joker and Dr. Yatz leave. Batman wakes up in time to see the Creeper transform into Jack Ryder in a plan to escape his bondage. This is not news for the Dark Knight Detective who was already aware of the secret identity. The Creeper is afraid of what Dr. Yatz and the Joker are up to, so he stays behind to investigate while Batman goes to catch the bad guys. However, what the Creeper finds is deadly – dozens, possibly hundreds of people who have been turned into Creeper-like monsters, and none of them are friendly! Dr. Yatz remotely releases the monsters and the Creeper makes a brave attempt to fight them all, but the numbers are just overwhelming and he soon succumbs.
