Owner's Description
"I'm melting, melting...." The death of Robin was long expected; no, I'm kidding but Adams certainly presented it as such with this dramatic cover that showed Robin expiring in an undeniably excruciatingly painful way. The Batman, of course, is shown feeling the anguish that only Adams could render with such oomph.
It took me years of searching until finally locating a slabbed copy of this issue that I felt was worth purchasing. This white paged copy looks so fantastic in hand that I can't imagine finding another slabbed copy that I would replace it with; but, perhaps I will.
Keeper!
Image #2 is of the same comic book, a place holder that will be replaced with a scan or photograph of the back cover of this book.
