In "The 13 Club!", The Joker turns the tables on a skeptical TV show by staging a series of crimes inspired by common superstitions—each one more brazen than the last. Written by Bill Finger and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Dick Sprang, this 1947 classic sees Gotham’s Clown Prince of Crime go on a bizarre rampage, all while the city’s beliefs are put to the test. The cover by Jack Burnley and Charles Paris captures the eerie, theatrical flair of the tale.
