Holy jinkies, Batman, just when it seemed superheroes couldn't get any groovier, you collide with the Mystery Machine gang. Such a pairing might normally yield one wacky crime-fighting power struggle, but in these two capers egos take a back seat to classic you-check-this-out, we'll-check-that Scooby-Doo splintering.

Soar along in the Batmobile or make like a banana and split with Shaggy and Scoob at these crime scenes—either way, it's a secret-passageway and scary-mask-packed combo even more compelling than the cookies-and-batmilk Scooby snack the pesky kids tuck into during a break in the action.
