In "The Island of Purple Mist!", Batman joins forces with a mysterious Gotham millionaire in a high-stakes showdown against a gang of criminals, but their mission takes a twist when the masked ally begins to suspect the true identity of the Dark Knight. Written by David V. Reed and illustrated by John Calnan, with inks by Dick Giordano, colors by Jerry Serpe, and letters by Ben Oda, this 1978 tale unfolds with classic noir tension. The cover, by Jim Aparo, captures the eerie mood of the island’s fog-shrouded mystery.
