Item Description

Wow! Here are BATMAN AND ROBIN from 1948 battling the Joker, The Mad Hatter and a gang of bank robbers in a nice, tight 52-page copy of BATMAN #49! With three big stories - one pencilled by BATMAN's creator Bob Kane - this is a real glimpse into the excitement of GOLDEN AGE superhero comics! . . and a look at just how far BATMAN's portrayal has changed over 73 years!

In "Batman's Arabian Nights", Batman and Robin, spotting what they think is the Joker's face on an ancient rug, travel to Arabia of the past where they meet the antithesis of the JOKER - the CRIER - who uses tears, not laughter, to steal from the people of his day.

While BATMAN AND ROBIN track the MAD HATTER, they must also contend with photographer VICKI VALE ho is out to prove that BATMAN is BRUCE WAYNE in "The Scoop of the Century!". And in, "The Prison Doctor!", a gang robs a bank and hides the money before being captured, and they want the prison doctor to help fake their deaths so they can escape BATMAN's surveillance and recover the money.

This is a very sharp, clean and colorful BATMAN #49, with a strong binding, minimal toning, and no creases, tears or other visible faults. There is, however, a light pencil notation at the top of the front cover. Our price of $980 can't be beat . . and we'll throw in FREE shipping!

This is by far the nicest and most affordable BATMAN #49 on HipComic!!
