Batman #28
In "Batman — Boss of the Big House!", Batman takes on a surprising new role when the prison warden appoints him acting warden after he saves an innocent man from execution. With the prison in turmoil, Batman must navigate a mystery when a prisoner scheduled for release the next day tries to escape the night before—leading him to suspect a connection to a long-ago robbery and a missing $250,000.

In "Batman -- Boss of the Big House!", Batman finds himself temporarily in charge of a maximum-security prison after saving a condemned man’s life.

In "The Parasols of Plunder," the Penguin, newly paroled on the condition he abandon all things avian, surprisingly channels his cunning into a seemingly harmless umbrella shop—only to prove that even the most genteel of cover-ups can harbor a scheme. With a flair for the theatrical and a penchant for mischief, he’s back in business, and Gotham’s streets are once again on edge.
