Item Description

DETECTIVE COMICS, debuting in 1937, was the final publication of the entrepreneur Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson, whose comics company, National Allied Publications, would evolve into DC COMICS, one of the world's two largest comic book publishers, though long after its founder had left it. It was the birthplace, in issue #27, of Bruce Wayne and his alter ego of BATMAN!

Here, 32 years after his momentous debut, you get the Caped Crusader in "The House That Haunted Batman!" by Marv Wolfman and Len Wein with illustrations (and cover art) by the legendary Neal Adams and superlative inker Dick Giordano. BATMAN enters an eerie haunted mansion that eerily appears outside Gotham City in order to find a missing ROBIN, and encounters the mind tricks of his diabolical foe DR. TZIN-TZIN!

You also get the 7-pg back-up story, "Batgirl vs. the Phantom Bullfighter!", written by Frank Robbins, and with pencils by Don Heck. Barbara Gordon travels to Spain on library work, and becomes involved in a feud between rival bullfighters.

This is a terrific-looking 52-year old comic - the binding is strong, the colors are bright, the covers still have their gloss . . just in top-notch condition. We'll conservatively grade this an 8.0 VF. . . which Overstreet values at $77 . . . but we value you as a customer, so we're pricing this at just $45 . . with our always-LOW shipping!

And any additional purchases with this order ship FREE!
