| Notes | Starting with this issue, some of the Batman stories featured in Detective Comics include the "Created by Bob Kane" tag in the credit box.
Hugo Strange makes his first Earth-One appearance in this issue.
Batman makes reference to the events of Batman #1 and Detective Comics #46 in this issue. Those stories officially took place in the continuity of Earth-Two, but similar events apparently transpired early in Batman's career on Earth-One as well.
Trivia:
The friend of Bruce Wayne in the story is a direct reference to the frequent Batman artist from the Golden Age and co-creator of the Joker, Jerry Robinson.
The idea of Bruce going to a medical resort that is run by Hugo Strange was adapted years later in the episode The Strange Secret of Bruce Wayne from Batman: The Animated Series in 1992. |
