You're listening to DC High Volume, Batman. For months, the holiday killer has made fools of cop and criminal alike. Now April Fool's Day is here, and enough is enough. In the caves beneath Wayne Manor, the world's greatest detective works to crack the case. Elsewhere in Gotham City, crime lord Carmine the Roman Falcone and his daughter Sophia seek answers of their own to this riddle.

But are they asking the right questions? And now, The Long Halloween, Chapter 7.

April Fool's Day. For half a year, a serial killer known as Holiday has been at large. Carmine the Roman Falcone is at his office, entertaining an audience with Edward Nygma, also known as the Riddler. He seeks to unravel this mystery.

Riddle me this.

Who is... Holiday? Meanwhile, at the cave, I prepare my own examination of the case.

85.615 - 96.177 The Joker

It's a mystery, broken into a jigsaw puzzle, wrapped in a conundrum, hidden inside a Chinese box.

104.219 - 143.958 Batman

Clues are left at every murder scene. These objects, easily obtained at any five and dime store, were selected to represent the dates of the killings. I won't have plenty on Thanksgiving. Snowglobe for Christmas. Champagne glass on Year's Eve. Box of chocolates on Valentine's Day. Toy leprechaun on St. Patrick's Day. Holidays. Like today, April Fool's Day.

143.978 - 151.4 Batman

And always, 22 caliber pistol with a wrapped handle. Who is Holiday? A killer.

154.782 - 195.151 The Joker

Question. Why does Holiday always use the same type of weapon, only to leave them behind at the scene of each murder? Answer. He gets them wholesale. Or let's be more practical. 22 caliber pistols are lightweight, easy on the hand, perfect for a woman. Perhaps a cat woman. With the break-in last June, she had access to your safe, Mr. Falcone.
