This is a difficult story to place, as Batman appears not to recognise several well-established villains (the Mad Hatter, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum) during this story, which would seem to imply that this is their first appearance. On the other hand, Robin’s age argues for a later placement – and there are no other chronological cues in the book. I have chosen to assume that Batman’s addled state throughout much of this story accounts for his failure to recognise the villains and placed it here as a best fit.
