Why collectors want this issue
- First published comic work by Marshall Rogers — seven pages on "A Canterbury Tail", the year before his legendary Detective Comics run with Steve Englehart and Terry Austin.
- Inked by Terry Austin — the same Rogers/Austin pairing that produced the definitive Batman of the 1970s.
- Joe Kubert cover: a skeleton warrior riding dragon-like creatures against soldiers — one of Kubert's most striking war-horror images.
- Also features Nestor Redondo and Bill Draut art, and an early Paul Levitz plot.
- High-grade raw copy of a genuinely undervalued artist's-first-work key.
