Batman Taschenbuch #12

In "Der Bulldozer," Batman arrives in a small West Virginia town to investigate reports of Blockbuster's reappearance—only to find the former villain has been living under a new identity, sheltered by a local miner. Tensions rise when the union boss Ajax, convinced Batman is a threat to his operations, moves to silence him, turning the quiet mining community into a battleground.

In "Im Schutze des Schattens," Batman follows a trail of old crimes and stolen relics, convinced a reformed criminal has resurfaced to steal a priceless tiara. But as shadows lengthen and secrets unfold, he finds himself outmatched—not by a villain, but by a mind far older and sharper, one that moves unseen through the city’s underbelly. With Gordon at his side and the echoes of his parents’ legacy ringing in his mind, Batman must confront a mystery that stretches beyond the law and into the realm of a legend known only as The Shadow.

In "Operation: 'Blindgänger!'", the real Batman, disguised as a blind man, works in secret alongside Robin to stop a high-stakes armored car heist, while the police wrongly imprison an imposter claiming to be Batman. With James Gordon and Lt. Owens caught in the confusion, the Schemer sets a deadly trap involving a gold-laden plane—only for the disguised Dark Knight to outmaneuver him at the last moment.
