In "The Strange Death of Batman!", a twist on the usual crime-fighting formula, Gardner Fox imagines an alternate path where Batman falls to the Bouncer—only for Robin to face the challenge of stopping the elastic villain without his mentor. With Carmine Infantino’s dynamic art and Joe Giella’s crisp inks, this 1966 Detective Comics issue reimagines the hero’s legacy in a story that’s both a mystery and a what-if, all wrapped in Murphy Anderson’s striking cover.
