“The Princess and the Vagabond!”

This Giant-sized 1976 DC anthology delivers a full Bat-Family brawl right on the cover, with Batman looming above while Robin and Batgirl tag-team a pair of opponents — one sent flying with a kick, the other reeling from Batgirl's strike, all captured in Ernie Chan's energetic pencils and inks. The featured story, "The Princess and the Vagabond!," spotlights the "Dynamite Duo" of Robin and Batgirl, and the issue rounds out its generous lineup with extras starring Ace the Bat-Hound and the Signalman. At fifty cents, Batman Family #5 packs a remarkable amount of Gotham's finest into a single oversized package.
