In "The Martian from Gotham City," Batman finds himself outwitted when a bizarre scientific device leaves him powerless to act whenever he hears a siren or bell—just as he's closing in on the criminal Big Jim Masters. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Sheldon Moldoff, this 1960 issue delivers a classic caper with a twist that turns Gotham's hero into a prisoner of his own city's sounds. The cover by Sheldon Moldoff captures the eerie tension of the moment, a 10-cent comic that remains a standout in the early Batman mythos.
