LEGO Batman: Adventures in Gotham City Episode 7: A Hero Rises

A Hero Rises is the seventh episode of LEGO Batman: Adventures in Gotham City. It is the forty-third chronological installment of the LEGO Multiverse Series, and is set before the events of LEGO Justice League 4. The film was written, directed and edited by Jack Hillebrecht, and was released on September 13, 2015. After being captured by the Joker and his allies, Alfred is being tortured. With the city still under threat of annihilation, Batman and Nightwing attempt a rescue mission, while a new hero decides to try and help them.

The eighth episode, The Brave and the Bald, was released a year later - commencing the third and final wave of the series.

Plot
Batman interrogates The Penguin, demanding to know the whereabouts of his fellow villains. Eventually, Batman gains this information - just as Bane and Mr. Freeze hoped he would. Batman and Nightwing plan to save Alfred, and he orders Robin to stay out of the fight.

Joker interrogates Alfred, who claims to be an innocent man named Thaddeus Crane, and that he bought the oversized Tumbler from a "local dealership". Meanwhile, Robin meets with Cyborg, and asks him to help fight their adversaries due to Cyborg's advanced body. Batman and Nightwing fight and overwhelm Bane and Scarecrow before making their way to Joker and Alfred. The villains reconvene and continue the fight, with Joker threatening to set off the rest of the bombs and destroy half of Gotham.

The heroes and villains struggle for the detonator, before Batman and Nightwing are struck down. At that moment, Robin and Cyborg intervene and join the fight. As the battle wages on, Batman and Joker fight one-on-one for the detonator. Before Joker can set it off, Batman knocks him from the platform - destroying the detonator and ending the conflict. As the villains are returned to Arkham Asylum, Cyborg is officially inducted into the Justice League.

In a post-credits scene, Sinestro meets with a deformed figure, as they discuss their future plans to unleash a mechanical menace - Brainiac.
