Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Selina Kyle is kidnapped by the villainous genetic engineer Dr. Emile Dorian and becomes his latest experiment to provide his man cat hybrid named Tygrus with a mate. Batman learns of this and comes to the island to rescue Selina. He is captured and forced into a deadly game of cat and-flying mouse as Tygrus hunts Batman through the island’s jungles.
Our Take
A weird, pulpy detour that feels more like a 50s sci-fi comic than an episode of this show. The island hunt has some real tension and Tygrus gets a surprisingly touching ending, but the cat-Selina design never stops looking goofy. Worth a watch for the curiosity factor alone, just don’t expect the usual Gotham mood.
