“The Case of the Chemical Syndicate”

This 2022 facsimile edition reproduces the cover of Detective Comics #27 — a striking yellow-and-red composition by Bob Kane showing a caped, grey-clad Batman swooping across a rooftop while gripping a struggling criminal, as a gunman in the foreground takes aim. The bold cover text announces "The Amazing and Unique Adventures of The Batman!", with the promise of 64 pages of action and Bill Finger's story "The Case of the Chemical Syndicate" inside. A wonderful way to hold this piece of comics history in a crisp, affordable 2022 printing.
