The Case of the Three Devils!
Storyline

When the Caped Crusaders run into some very athletic jewels thieves, they realize that a fence for the stolen goods is the best way to track them down.

Story Notes

Artist Kane omits Batman's chest bat in many panels. Batman and Robin use rocket-powered roller skates in the story. In panel 7 on page 5, the name of the pawn shop appears to read "Bob and Jerry Pawn Shop". The book that Robin tosses at a crook in panel 5 on page 7, titled "Crime Does Not Pay!" is by "Robinson Roussos"!
