Owner's Description

Origin and 1st appearance of Man-Bat. 1st Robin and Batgirl team-up story. 400th anniversary issue. Bought for $248 through Dave and Adams due to them not having in stock 2 things that I ordered. They didn't have the 1st and offered credit with $100 extra, so I ordered again, only for them to not have in stock the "next thing!" Good on Dave and Adams owning up to their mishap, I pray they're rewarded. Man-Bat can be moody and done well in all things, if we call to mind the depravity of science mishaps as well. At least the desperateness can make for a good story, all "detective" things considered. A sort of plight that can be remedied, but not without the Batman on the case and the good will of the "BATS" to make some sort of human man charity. Got to love that Neal Adams cover, with them looking like modern "mecha" (mechanical robots that tower over cities, man powered like Power Rangers or VR Troopers) and before that was a thing, to terrorize Gotham City!

AS2 Batgirl and Robin were getting their footing as a team, but Batgirl was becoming a leader by standing on her own, while Robin would age slower but again sometimes prove more experienced.

Complete with a back cover picture of the prescreen pass before released to theaters of DC/Vertigo Film, "The Kitchen!" Cooked up in the mixing bowl and based on the comic of the same name, after the original monster gangster-husbands go to jail for three years, barely supported wives take over to show their prowess in being leading "Man-Bat-Beasts!" Hey, they married them to begin with!

Grader Notes:
spine stress lines breaks color;
light creasing to cover;
very light wear to cover.
