The adventures of Batman and Robin reach the mid-1940s with these tales, collected in trade paperback for the first time. In these stories from the pages of Batman #21-25, Detective Comics #82-92, and World's Finest Comics #12-14, the Dynamic Duo stop a gang of cattle rustlers, untangle the upside-down crimes of The Joker, and face a gang of crooks who use football plays to inspire their crimes.
