“The Web of Doom!”

In "The Web of Doom!", Batman and Robin take on a chilling mystery when amnesiac Dr. Peter Driscoll can't recall where he hid a parcel containing deadly microbes. With the help of Bill Finger’s sharp script and Sheldon Moldoff’s crisp art, they track down three former test subjects—each with a different fate—while Win Mortimer’s cover captures the tension with a stark, shadowed image of the Caped Crusader. A 10-cent puzzle of guilt, memory, and hidden danger from 1955.

Dr. Peter Driscoll suffers from amnesia and cannot remember where he dropped a parcel with deadly microbes. Batman and Robin hopes to jog his memory by confronting him with three prisoners who served as his test subjects during the microbe research. But finding these men proves to be no easy matter: the first one stands accused of murder, the second one has gone legit and the third one is on the run.
