Cover pencils by Irv Novick. "Baffling Deaths of the Crime-Czar!", script by Frank Robbins, pencils by Irv Novick, inks by Joe Giella; The aging Mr. Big of the Gotham underworld, Li'l Studs, is being given a "welcome home" banquet by gangsters following a stay in the hospital; Quirk, one of Studs's competitors, has hired three hitmen to rub him out: a crack pistol shot named the Silencer, a poison-dart hurler called the Dart, and Big Jolt, a specialist in electrocution; Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson are posing as waiters to avert such a hit-attempt, and thus stave off a gang-war amongst the other mob chiefs for Studs's place; Studs indeed dies, but none of the mobsters can agree as to how he was killed, since all three of the assassins struck at the same time; With help from Dr. Jennings, a doctor who treated Li'l Studs, Batman and Robin discover the truth: Studs died of a heart attack before any of the assassins could kill him. 36 Pages, Full Color.
