DESCRIPTION
cream/ow pages; tape on cover
Bob Kane cvr/art; classic hypodermic needle/bondage cover (1/40)
Detective #35 marks the beginning of Batman’s reign as the title’s regular cover star — featuring a wild image that captures all the gruesome drama of the Dark Knight's first year on the newsstands. (Readers also got their first look at Batman's own car, although it wasn't yet called the Batmobile.) These rare early Detective books are vital to understanding how the character quickly vaulted to the top of the collective consciousness of Golden Age comic readers. These are also the books that would directly inspire the early-70s creation of a "New Look" Batman as envisioned by legendary Batman artists Neal Adams and Jim Aparo, and once again referenced for the pioneering blockbuster Batman film of 1989.
