Batman: The Brave and the Bold #1

In "The Winning Card, Part 1," Batman’s first year as Gotham’s protector brings him face-to-face with a serial killer, while Captain James Gordon races to thwart the Joker’s deadly game against Henry Claridge. Amid the city’s growing tension, a young girl vanishes in the park—only to stumble into a twisted encounter with the Clown Prince of Crime.

When a cryptic package arrives at Clark Kent’s doorstep—a decoder ring from his childhood and a desperate plea that reads "Save Me!"—Superman is drawn into a mystery that stretches back to his earliest days. With no clear leads, he must piece together the meaning behind the ring and the identity of the one who sent it, before the clock runs out.
