Owner's Description

Kaluta did it again and I never looked at a roller coaster ride the same way again. For one thing, who is that villain and why was he wearing a cowboy hat is a very intriguing question posed by this cover (at least for me). Read this issue, if you have not, and I can almost guaranty you will like the story, not to mention the art.

The period during which I purchased this comic book at my favorite newsstand was one during which comic books made my life nearly perfect. Having the time and luxury to sit down and read one comic book after another was pure heaven. Although I have experienced "comic book moments" in my life since that time, none have equaled that period and they should not because those moments are what make childhood unforgettable!

Keeper, until I locate a typical CGC graded 9.8 copy; which "arrived" on February 3, 2019; of this issue for this, my second, Detective Comics 401 to 500 set. Still a "keeper."
