☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Case of the Silent Songbirds!", the Penguin launches a bizarre bird-lovers society with a twist—his members are all famous singers, and he’s demanding they pay up or lose their voices. Batman and Robin dive into the mystery, uncovering a web of threats and silent performers, while the pages also feature "THE PERILOUS PUPPETS" and "FELONS IN FUR." Art by Jim Mooney and Ray Burnley brings the noir intrigue to life, with cover art by Jack Burnley and Charles Paris capturing the era’s flair.
