Superman #6/1970
In "Eine Kugel zuviel," Batman is called as a witness in a murder trial, his testimony leading to the acquittal of the accused—only for the man to immediately confess to the crime. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Bob Kane with inks by Ray Burnley, this 1970 story raises unsettling questions about justice and perception. The cover, a striking piece by Neal Adams, captures the tension of a moment that defies easy answers.
When Dick Grayson leaves Wayne Manor to begin university, Batman retreats to the city for a fresh start—only to face his toughest case yet. With Alfred by his side and a mysterious new threat emerging, the dynamic between the Dark Knight and the young hero-in-training is tested as secrets from the past resurface.
In a gripping courtroom twist, Batman is called as a witness in a murder trial, his testimony leading to the acquittal of a man who seems to have been wrongfully accused. But just moments after being freed, the man confesses to the crime—leaving Batman to question whether he truly saw the truth. With Robin by his side and Gotham’s finest, including Polizeichef James "Jim" Gordon and Dr. Forbes, drawn into the mystery, the case takes a baffling turn. Who is Mr. Spanier, and why does the truth seem to shift with every revelation?
