"The Demon of Gothos Mansion"Batman goes in search of Daphne Pennyworth, Alfred's niece, who has been kidnapped by a coven and is about to be a sacrifice to bring about the demon known as Ballk. "Help me...I think I'm dead!" Robin saves a youth who has been shaken up due to a chemical accident. He later becomes involved in a political issue involving a Congressman who has helped an industry’s entry into New Carthage and a professor who opposes it the entry due to the pollution that it will cause. Famously, the cover art is a throwback to Detective Comics issue #31 originally drawn by Bob Kane and Sheldon Moldoff. — Description from Comic Vine community (comicvine.gamespot.com).
