Part 1: Bruce Wayne, the original Batman, retires due to failing health when his rescue of a kidnapped woman nearly goes wrong and he must resort to almost using a gun—the ultimate sin in his eyes. Twenty years later, Terrence "Terry" McGinnis discovers Batman's identity after the aging Bruce Wayne helps him fight off a gang of Jokerz (street punks enamored of the original Clown Prince of Crime). After Terry's father is murdered, Terry seeks Bruce's help to avenge him.
Part 2: Terry steals the Batsuit to pursue his father's killer, a professional bodyguard named Mr. Fixx (George Takei) whose employer Derek Powers (Sherman Howard), the current CEO of Wayne-Powers, is secretly using the company's resources to develop a biological weapon. Bruce Wayne, discovering the theft, deactivates the suit, but when seeing the now-helpless Terry being punched out reactivates it so he can continue pursuing Fixx, and in the end Wayne appears at Terry's house to hire him as a "special assistant."

05 05 Meltdown February 13, 1999 07 Kids' WB
Wayne-Powers builds a new body for Victor Fries, better known as Batman's opponent Mr. Freeze, in the hope that a similar treatment might reverse Derek Powers' transformation into Blight. Seemingly cured of his need for extreme cold, Fries tries to redeem himself, but neither the former Batman, Bruce Wayne, nor his former victims completely trust him, and his benefactors have plans of their own. Wayne's protégé, Terry McGinnis, seeks to help Fries in redemption.

The Terrific Trio, a group of scientists who became superheroes after gaining powers in an experiment gone awry, make their way into Gotham and become media sensations. But Magma, Freon, and 2-D Man soon learn that the accident that gave them their powers was not really an accident. The Trio are inspired by the Fantastic Four, with 2D Man being Mr. Fantastic, Magma being a combination of the Thing and the Human Torch, and Freon can spread her molecules apart to the point where she becomes hard to see, and her ice beams can form protective shields, making her analogous to the Invisible Woman.

"Slappers", illegal steroid patches containing the drug Venom, are all the rage with Hill High School's athletes, and Bruce suspects that one of his old enemies, Bane, may have a hand in their production. However Terry finds that Bane has become a withered old man due to his constant use of the poisonous drug and a caretaker scientist named Chappell is using the drug to suit his own needs.
