    Cover pencils by Irv Novick. "Call Me Master!", script by Frank Robbins, pencils by Irv Novick, inks by Dick Giordano; Batman and Robin try to stop three apparent robberies during the same night, only to find that each of the "victims" insists that a legitimate operation is going on, such as transferal of goods from a warehouse; However, all three "victims" are members of the Civic Conscience Council, as is Bruce Wayne; Bruce discovers that all the members of the Council, besides himself, have been hit by mysterious thefts, and the three "legitimate" operations last night prove to be illegitimate; Bruce soon receives orders himself from a mysterious phone caller, is compelled to open a drug storeroom at Wayne Foundation for thieves to enter and, after Robin subdues the crooks, learns that even Robin can give him a command to hit him on the chin and he must obey it; Batman and Robin notice that Myron Mycroft, the mastermind and a member of the Council, soon learns that Batman is subject to his commands; He gives Batman a phone-command to blow up Wayne Manor as a test, and witnesses Batman push down a plunger-activator after a fierce internal struggle. 36 Pages, Full Color.
