"Starting this issue: The Amazing and Unique Adventures of THE BATMAN!"

Complete the World's Finest set with this CGC 9.8 copy of the Detective Comics #27 Facsimile Edition. This is a precise recreation of the May 1939 issue that debuted the Dark Knight, preserving every detail from the Golden Age—including the original advertisements.

About the Source Material: While Superman brought the light, Batman brought the shadows. Created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, Detective Comics #27 introduced a vigilante who fought crime not with superpowers, but with detective skills, gadgets, and fear. This issue marks the beginning of the Batman mythology, introducing Bruce Wayne and Commissioner Gordon. Like Action Comics #1, original copies are virtually unobtainable, making this high-grade facsimile the perfect alternative for history-conscious collectors.

Issue Summary: "The Case of the Chemical Syndicate" Witness the very first Batman story! In a plot reminiscent of the pulp fiction of the era, the "Bat-Man" investigates a series of murders among the partners of the Apex Chemical Corporation. This isn't the polished hero of today; this is the Golden Age vigilante who wasn't afraid to let criminals meet a grim fate. The issue also includes other anthology stories typical of the era, such as "Speed Saunders" and "Spy," giving you a full picture of what kids were reading in 1939.
