Aparo. 22 p. in Detective Comics, no. 643 (Apr. 1992) --
Summary: A murderer, who says he can "read people like a
book," establishes the occupation of each victim and leaves
the bodies in jackets with three-digit numbers on them. One
of the victims is found in a library, and Batman notices
the Dewey numbers on the books. He guesses that the killer
is a librarian, though the librarian explaining the
classification system to him disagrees: "That's a
defamation of character. Libarians are gentle, bookish
souls." But Batman is correct. -- Data from Bill Wormstedt,
