Dick Sprang cvr, Bob Kane art; Penguin app.
Batman #36 has a cover inspired by the time-traveling tale “Sir Batman At King Arthur’s Court,” which finds the Dynamic Duo transported (via hypnosis) to the 7th Century. From there, they interact with the famous characters of Arthurian mythos: Merlin, Morgaine le Fey, Sir Lancelot, and King Arthur himself. After derailing an evil plot by le Fey, Batman becomes a knight of the realm and joins the ranks of the fabled Round Table. The anthology book also includes a classic Penguin plot line and the last solo Alfred Beagle mystery story before the character was rechristened Pennyworth. He was also given a slimmer, bearded look to establish continuity with the loyal butler’s appearance in the Batman serial films released in 1943.
