Dick Sprang Penguin cvr; 1st Jim Mooney Batman art
Kentucky Collection
Appearing for the first time in Detective Comics #58, the Penguin would prove to be one of the Caped Crusader’s most popular and most challenging villains, holding on to his spot as a top Bat-baddie into the modern-day. The array of often twisted and gruesome enemies dreamt up by Batman’s creators often included a touch of comical inspiration, like the design of the pudgy, elegant Penguin, a ne’er do well that got by on brains rather than brawn. In this issue of Batman, Jim Mooney makes his first appearance as an illustrator for the title, ghosting for Dick Sprang, and eventually becoming one of the main artists on the run. This is a rare, early Batman issue, with a classic villain cover, a popular issue for fans of all things Batty.
