“City without Guns!”

In "City without Guns!", Batman and Robin race against time when bandits steal a vital experimental drug from a hospital—just one dose that could save a patient’s life. With the stolen formula scattered across global fences, the Dynamic Duo must track down the missing components before the deadline, all while navigating a city where even the usual tools of crime-fighting are no help. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Dick Sprang, with inks by Charles Paris and letters by Joe Letterese, this 1970 classic features a cover by Curt Swan and Murphy Anderson.
