Published by DC Comics in 1960.

A very pleasing cover with no major flaws depending on how one feels about the tiny indentations in the wall to the right of Robin's face and to the small pen writing in the white circular DC logo in the upper left.  The cover reflects light well (with about 80% of original gloss), has strong sharp coloring, is generally smooth, and is relatively flat.  The cover has very minor wear, only a few very minor color breaking creases, and a number of minor non-color breaking creases; the culmulative effect of these has only slightly diminished the cover's appeal (see Definition of a Crease below).  We might have graded this at FN\VF but for a few odd flaws which though scarcely noticeable, according to the rules of grading seem to when taken together call for a lower grade.  There are about two dozen very tiny indentations in the wall to the right of Robin; these have virtually no affect on the cover's visual impact.  There are the small pen marks in the DC circle; again, a flaw with practically no consquence.  There a few small areas with diminished gloss, also with little consquence.  There are tiny spine stress marks.  Light general soiling to the front cover and a bit more on the back cover.  Interior pages are very supple and white to a light tan at the borders.  The cover's color falls 2 millimeters short of reaching the spine.  The cover is firmly attached to both staples.  The edges are sharp though slightly creased at the right.  The corners are squarish.  The book lies relatively flat with 3 of the corners rising 2 to 3 millimeters.  The book is complete with all pages securely attached with no interior tears or rips.  Overall a book with FN\VF appeal.     

Batman is our favorite comic hero.  Having no superpowers, he must rely on his education, intelligence, and cunning to a larger degree than his superhero counterparts.  This is the pre-new look Batman peopled with fantastic creatures, crooks with sci-fi powers, a fair number of aliens, and a load of bat-gear (though not with the campiness of TV Batman).  This version of Batman is aimed to please those into Asimov's style of pulp science fiction!!
 
Comic Grading - Definition of a Crease.     

Crease - A fold which causes ink removal, usually resulting in a white line.  This seems to be the sense of what a crease is to Overstreet's Grading Guidelines and most comic graders.  We note two categories of creasing in our descriptions, 1) color breaking and 2) non-color breaking. 
 
For a color breaking crease, it must show that white line, though of course the thickness, length, and cover location of the crease are all important factors in how severely the crease actually degrades the cover's impact.
 
A non-color breaking crease is technically not a crease since it doesn't break color, but to those of us who have spent hours obsessing over our books, it is an interruption in the gloss or how the cover reflects light.  Take a smooth unblemished white sheet of paper and press your thumb nail into it several times using varying amounts of pressure.  As the paper is white there is no break in color, but depending on lighting and its angle to the paper eventually you would be able to see every point where the nail impressed the paper.  Again the noticeability, number, and locations of non-color breaking creases are factors affecting the quality of the cover.
 
If a cover is generally smooth, this means the non-color breaking creases present are interfering little with the cover's appearance.  These kinds of creases range from unnoticeable in normal viewing conditions to very intrusive.  A comic must be very carefully handled to avoid leaving these impressions at the edges.
 
Unfortunately, scans of the covers, even the enlargeable images we employ, do not always fully depict these imperfections.  We try to fill in the gaps by offering my estimate of what the Overstreet Grade would likely be, and by giving a detailed written description. 
 
Like most comic buyers and graders we have exchanged thoughts with, we agree that Overstreet Grading Guidelines provide a helpful starting point to access a book's quality, but we all have our own tastes and biases, and sharp disagreements on various books as well as complaints about Overstreet's approach.  Different books will impress you differently than they would us, which is why we try to be detailed and factual.  We are merely trying to provide buyers with enough background so the book received satisfies or exceeds the expectations generated by our listing.
 
We are currently in the process of listing dozens of Detective Comics from the Silver and Bronze Age.  See other store sections for many high quality comics from this era.
Please note the $4.00 handling fee for this purchase.  Fees charged do not fully compensate for the labor and materials necessary to process a purchase.  Purchases will ship within 5 business days.
 
As of this listing over 90% of all issues of Detective Comics 266 to 400, Action Comics 282 thru 482, & Worlds Finest 115 to 244, are in stock.  Open to requests for individual issues to list on eBay!!!

We have tried to be precise and reasonable in my grading.  However, since grading has many gray areas ... No Condition is guaranteed.  No one can catch or describe every flaw, though generally our listings in detail and accuracy surpass 90% of sellers.  Better yet, with enlargeable images for every item you can make sounder judgements about the quality of the item.  Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or want additional scans via email.
        
We are posting a number of Silver Age Superman, Batman,
  and other DC titles.  Consider us for your 1962 to 1973 DC Comic needs.  Where else can you get 90% of all Challengers of the Unknown issues?

Expensive Look Without The Expense!
Size: Medium, Color: Black, Size: Medium, Color: Black
Sizing: If you’re a true large like me and close to but less than fifteen pounds overweight, normal length and with a 44” chest, buy a medium and use the shirt to inspire you to lose the beer belly. If you have similar dimensions but are overweight by up to thirty pounds, get the large. Materials: The mediums are manufactured to 70% synthetic, 30% linen—which is a great mix, as is doesn’t have to be ironed after it’s washed and hung to dry, nor does it have to be ironed every time you get up from a chair. I’ve had many 100% linen shirts and sure, they look great after you spend thirty minutes ironing them, just to look like a crumpled up newspaper after you get out of your car. My experience with linen shirts is what brought me here. Unboxing the shirt: I threw it on an ironing board the moment I unbagged it. I tried the Synthetic setting on the iron—it wasn’t enough. I then tried the Wool setting and set the steam setting to constant medium to high. It worked great. I didn’t have to press down at all, just lightly glided the iron across wrinkled areas of the shirt. Within five minutes, the shirt looked like a hundred-dollar shirt. The material is light, yet feels heavy to the touch and breathes very well in the heat. The hidden buttons give a clean, modern look that allows the shirt to be worn with anything from shorts and sandals to dress slacks and shoes in a club. I like to wear these shirts, untucked with a pair of jeans and western boots. This shirt is very comfortable, fits nice and is extremely versatile.

Great for the price
Size: Medium, Color: Grey
Nice and light material. Looks good. Suitable for hot temperatures and casual attire. The only thing I've noticed so far that isn't so great, is that the buttons are rather cheap and the middle part broke out on a few of them.

Versatile, comfortable and a delight to wear
Size: 10.5 Wide, Color: Army Green
Had never heard of this brand but needed a pair of waterproof boots for a trip to the PNW where we would hike in mountains, rainforest and beaches. I have a pair of Merrell Moab hiking shoes, but wanted something that covered more and were waterproof. These boots are amazing. They are one of the most comfortable shoes I own. I wore them everywhere and found I preferred them over other shoes throughout the trip. They stayed comfortable and dry no matter where we went, rivers, lakes or the ocean. I’ve now worn them on several trips including a March trip to Bryce Canyon where we went from snow on some trails to the heat of the red rocks in others. I love these boots more every time I wear them. I am a huge fan now. At the price they are a nobrainer. I would buy these Nortiv8 boots over and over again.

Good value for a $55 boot.
Size: 12, Color: Army Green
I like these boots because I have a wide foot and even though I bought the 12 and NOT the 12W there is plenty of width. Very comfortable boot. I have put this pair through about 1000 miles mostly on asphalt, ice and snow. Very little actual dirt/ rocky trails. I bought them for the waterproofness and ankle support. Now the soles are getting thin and I can feel small rocks through the soles. Plus the soles are beginning to separate from the uppers and they are no longer waterproof. Not bad for 1000 miles. Still, I feel For a $55 boot they are a good value. I am 6ft and weigh 250.
