Description

Detective Comics #36 (DC, 1940) CGC Apparent VG 4.0 Moderate (P) Cream to off-white pages. "The early, pre-Robin adventures of the Bat-Man were dark, grim, and quite violent," Rob Hughes noted. This issue had the first appearance of Dr. Hugo Strange, the first major villain of the series. Also, while not seen on Bob Kane's cover, the issue had the debut of the finned gloves that Batman still wears today. This issue's very tough to come by in unrestored condition (CGC has certified twice as many restored as unrestored copies), and we think you'll agree that this one presents nicely. CGC notes, "Restoration includes: tear seals, spine splits sealed, cleaned, reinforced." Overstreet 2008 GD 2.0 value = $914; VG 4.0 value = $1,828.
