Synopsis
Tim Drake's friend Norris hallucinates under the influence of the marijuana created by the Floronic Man. Poison Ivy kisses Batman, releases him and watches as he and the Floronic Man fight. Batman wins the fight by shocking the Floronic Man and cutting off his head (which doesn't kill him, he's a plant). The Batman easily dispatches Holly and Eva. However, Poison Ivy escapes due to paralysis induced by the kiss she shared with Batman earlier in the story. Tim Drake stands before his class and explains why he will never take drugs.
Keywords
