“Operaatio iskuryhmä sokeat”

"Operaatio iskuryhmä sokeat" delivers a clever twist in a classic Batman tale, with writer Frank Robbins and artists Irv Novick and Joe Giella crafting a tense mystery where the Schemer manipulates the law by framing a blind man for murder—then turning the tables on the Dark Knight himself. When Batman arrives at the scene, he's arrested on false evidence, setting up a gripping cat-and-mouse game between justice and deception. The cover by Irv Novick and Mike Esposito captures the moment's intensity, perfectly framing the chaos of a hero mistaken for a criminal.
