Dirigibles of Doom! One of the first cases in the costumed career of Earth-Two's Batman, and one of the later adventures of Earth-One's Batman. Although both masterminds behind this criminal capers were but footnotes in history, they are noted.
Captain Blimp was the son of Navy man, seeking revenge for the military rejecting the Zeppelin Project he had worked on. Forming a private militia, Blimp utilized magnetic technology on his only dirigible to steal first a submarine then a battleship. Seeking monetary ransom for his demands, Blimp encountered Gotham's caped crusader. The Captain eventually met his defeat versus the Batman.
Professor Karl Kruger was a scientist who had styled himself after Napoleon, and former his militia known as the Scarlet Horde. Armed with a death ray above his dirigible, Kruger threatened Gotham while seeking to rule the city. This incurred the wrath of the Batman, who confronted the Professor leading to Kruger's death.
