'Shoot a Crooked Arrow' Story Code '9705-Part 1' by Stanley Ralph Ross

Holy Men in Tights! Having escaped from Police Headquarters, the self-styled Robin Hood-like figure known as the Archer rejoins his band of merry mercenaries - Maid Marilyn, Crier Tuck and Big John. Together they visity Wayne Manor, gas everyone inside and steal the loose cash that millionaire Bruce Wayne keeps in the wall safe; next, they return to Police HQ and use trick arrows to temporarily blind Commissioner Gordon, Chief O'Hara, and the Dynamic Duo, and then steal the takings from Everett Bannister's Koin Machines Company. When the Archer and his felons begin handing out their loot amongst the people of Gotham, Batman and Robin arrive and apprehend them; hoowever, the Dynamic Duo are dumbfounded when the poor but misguided citizens promptly use the redistributed money to bail out their heroes - namely the Archer and his gang. The Caped Crusader and his trusty chum track the Archer to his hideout at the Earl Of Huntington Archery Range in Gotham's Green Forest section; thank to a diversion from Alfred, the two heroes gain entry to the building, but they trigger a secret alarm and find themselves trapped in a giant net…
