☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Cape & Cowl Deathtrap," Batman investigates a high-stakes robbery at the University business office, where the Parking Lot Bandit’s signature MO points to a far more dangerous game. With Bob Rozakis scripting and Al Milgrom’s dynamic art bringing the tension to life—inked by Terry Austin and lettered by Ben Oda—this 1975 issue sets a pulse-pounding tone. Dick Giordano’s cover captures the mystery with sharp, shadowed precision.
When a purse thief strikes right in front of Dick Grayson and his girlfriend Lori Elton, even his quick reflexes can't stop the crime—but the real danger may be just beginning. The thief’s bold moves and strange pattern of breaking into homes after stealing wallets point to a far more dangerous game. As a university burglary stuns the city, suspicion quickly turns to the elusive Parking Lot Bandit.
