DESCRIPTION

2nd appearance of Batman; Kane, Shuster, Guardineer art (6/39)
Batman’s historical second appearance in Detective Comics #28 still couldn't get his picture on the cover. That didn't stop Bob Kane and Bill Finger from building the mythology of their shadowy new hero. DC was also savvy enough to add a cover banner promising The Batman was appearing “this month and every month." None of that kept Detective #28 from years of being undervalued — later leading to this book becoming a truly scarce collectible. Times were changing, however, and Fu Manchu would be making his final appearance with Detective #28. By the time this issue roared off the stands and into adolescents' back pockets, DC was no longer uncertain about the potential of their new superhero.
