Batman #266

A looming, shadowy villain dominates the cover of this 1975 DC thriller, his enormous hands reaching down toward a glowing orb that traps Batman and Catwoman together — teasing a partnership that's described right on the cover as "more beautiful and more dangerous than ever!" Dick Giordano's cover art crackles with menace, framing the Dark Knight and his feline co-star in a perfectly sinister visual trap. "The Curious Case of the Catwoman's Coincidences!" promises exactly the kind of atmospheric, pulpy fun that made mid-seventies Batman such a treat.
