Owner's Description
One hundred pages baby! I could not have been happier when I saw this issue at my favorite newsstand as there were more pages for me to enjoy; and did I.
This first Detective Comics 100 pager was a watershed moment in this fabulous hobby for me simply because I could savor so much more of my favorite comic book title until the next issue hit the newwstands. Of course, the fabulous Kaluta cover did not hurt!
These 100 pagers are truly a wonder in comic book history.
Starting with this issue and continuing through issue number 445 I purchased either 12 or 13 copies of each issue as these 100 pagers fascinated me; and still do. Simply stated, I "love" the Detective Comics (and Batman) 100 pagers!
Keeper, until I locate a typical CGC graded 9.8 copy.
