| Notes | Reprinted issue:
Detective Comics Vol 1 #408, February, 1971
Editor Julius Schwartz explains in the letter column of this issue the reason why they published a reprint instead of a new story. Writer Len Wein was then finishing business with Marvel Comics and this caused him to get behind schedule and he couldn't meet the deadline. On the other hand, previous inker Terry Austin withdrew at last moment from his inking assignments in Detective Comics, which had to be filled by Dick Giordano. Unfortunately, due to Giordano's previous commitment to the Superman vs. Muhammad Ali special issue, he was unable to finish the inks for this issue's story. For this reason, Schwartz decided to reprint one of the most demanded stories from the past, which was first published in Detective Comics #408.
There is however new story and art, developed as a framing sequence for accompanying the reprint. This consists on 2 pages in the beginning and one page at the end, which are part of the current storyline developed in the title. |
