But As the elder statesman of the original owner contingent you have some ‘splaining to do as to where that big chunk out of the front cover went?

Packing and re-packing over the years took it's toll on some of the most read books...just luck that so many are still in the condition they are... always hated it when one was torn.

Popular Post woowoo Posted June 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2023 This came from E Gerber himself in 1982 bought it in person when I won his Auction for 1300 and drove up there to get it.

Evidence shows that this actually hits the stands 2 weeks before Tec 27, making it The Batman's first newsstand appearance!!! Can you imagine buying an Action #12, flipping thru it and finding that last page to the Superman story and telling your newsstand guy to hold a copy of Tec #27 for you in 2 weeks? Awesome! Oh, btw, my copy is currently coverless but will be restored to all of its original glory upon adding a reproduction cover.

Frisco Larson Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Since we're talking about the beginning of The Batman, it'd only be right to post this pic I took of my Adventure #37 which plugs his upcoming new feature in the May issue of Detective Comics!

Frisco Larson Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 And, of course, he got a mention in the issue before his debut in Detective Comics #26. Fortunately, I had the good sense to snap a pic of that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frisco Larson Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 And is it just me or do Cleo and Clancy resemble a comedy duo that was VERY popular at that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
