The sixteenth film in my Batman Cinematic Universe! The plot for this one goes as follows: Barbara Gordon’s psychopathic brother, James Jr., breaks out of Arkham Asylum, so she decides to take matters into her own hands after her father, the police commissioner, tells her he’s too busy with another problem to catch him. Barbara ends up finding the Batcave on accident, and steals one of Batman’s old suits, modifying it to fit her. However, at the same time, Pamela Isley attacks one of businessman Jason Woodrue’s chemical plants, and is exposed to a chemical agent, causing her to gain the ability to control plants! Now Barbara has to deal with not only her brother, but also the new villain: Poison Ivy!
