Bob Kane/Jerry Robinson classic Joker "double guns" cvr
Detective #69 sports a classic cover that also returned the Joker to his place as one of the most beloved and creepiest villains of the Golden Age. Jerry Robinson's two-gunned depiction of the Clown Prince of Crime lends the Joker a sense of menace that had been somewhat lacking after the introduction of Robin. Collectors know that the contents back up the striking imagery, as well. "The Harlequin's Hoax" is a classic Batman story full of intrigue and action as the Joker engineers a dastardly plot involving mysterious gifts and missing body parts.
