“Peril of the Poison Rings!”

In "Peril of the Poison Rings!", Robin takes the stage at the Gotham Police College, turning a lecture on initiative into a hands-on demonstration with sports gear—then screening a film of a solo case where he let a known crook escape, hoping to track them to their boss. When the plan backfires and he’s captured in a wet dungeon filled with forgotten equipment, he’s left to challenge cadets with a mystery: how did he get out? Art by Jim Mooney, with cover by Carmine Infantino and Murphy Anderson.

Robin gives a lecture at Gotham Police College on resourcefulness and initiative, using sports equipment as visual aids, then shows a film about a case he was on without Batman. Robin recognized one of the crooks, and allowed them to get away, hoping they would lead him to their boss. Robin follows them to their hideout, but slips on a wet spot on the floor upon entering and is captured. He is thrown into a dungeon with a bag of some old sports equipment while the crooks return to the factory to complete their robbery. Robin challenges the police cadets to figure out how he escaped.
