Research notes and sources
Reuses original Batman artwork and adds Finster in Robin’s position, with a redesigned Fanboy masthead. Both Bob Kane and Sergio Aragonés are signed and credited by the retailer. This is an adaptation rather than a wholly redrawn Batman figure. The exact cover echoes the paired diagonal swinging figures, billowing capes, yellow field, bat-shaped masthead and/or skyline of Batman #1 (1940). Edition-specific qualifications are recorded in collector notes.
