frozentundraguy Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) I'm trying a higher Dots per square inch setting for this 67 Superman book. The theory being a higher DPSI setting should make it tougher to spot em. Edited February 24, 2012 by frozentundraguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dover Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I always liked this red cover, you dont see many: That is very hard to find in high grade. The Slobodian raw copy went for a good sum on E-Bay awhile back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epowe10097 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 um, hey guys, turn around? What happened to that super hearing? First "new look" Batman. Wonder if it will ever be recognized as such? Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 um, hey guys, turn around? What happened to that super hearing? First "new look" Batman. Wonder if it will ever be recognized as such? Eddie Dont know if it constitutes new look since there is no yellow around the bat on his chest? The next issue, 142 does. Did this come out same month as Detective 327? I thought that book was always considered the first new look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did this come out same month as Detective 327? I thought that book was always considered the first new look? I checked on the issue dates for both WF 141 and Detective 327. Both have cover dates of May 1964. Possibly WF 141 was ready for the presses before the "new look" was devised for Detective 327. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 It is definatley new-lookish, just missing the yellow symbol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epowe10097 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) In the story inside the issue, Batman does have the yellow oval around the bat. According to Mike's DC site, Batman # 163 (no oval) was on sale March 5, 1964, this issue of World's Finest on March 12 & Detective # 327 on March 26. And considering the cover does not have the oval but the stories inside do, I believe the release dates.

Silver Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 You are correct, the WF is the first new look. here it is folks, the first ever yellow oval Batman, from page one of WF 141: DC wasn't even sure how to draw it yet, a perfect circle? nice catch!

epowe10097 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 It kind of seems like they placed the oval on Batman after the original art but before the coloring. I simply base that on the way it is "drawn on" in the bottom panel of page 5. Looks like a late addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epowe10097 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) As an additional FYI, Batman # 163 does indeed say that Detective Comics was to go on sale on March 26 according to the ad on the bottom of story (# 1) page 12.
