In "Valley of the Copper Moon!", Alfred Pennyworth takes on an unexpected task—walking a lady’s dog—only to find himself entangled in a mystery involving giant turtles. Written by Don C. Cameron and Joe Samachson, with art and inks by Jerry Robinson and letters by Ira Schnapp, this 1976 tale showcases the resourceful butler in a rare spotlight.

In "The Joker's Daughter!", a stolen manuscript from a deceased crime novelist sets off a mystery that draws in Robin, Lt. Tatem, and Chief Frank McDonald. When the daughter of the Joker herself claims responsibility, her true motives remain as tangled as the case itself—especially as Christine Ariadne and Lori Elton become entangled in the web of deception.

When Alfred Pennyworth is temporarily loaned out to walk a wealthy friend’s dog, Chumley, he expects little more than a quiet stroll—until a series of strange sightings of giant turtles leads him into a mystery far beyond his usual duties. With Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson caught up in their own affairs, it’s up to the ever-resourceful butler to unravel a case that’s as bizarre as it is dangerous.
