Batman '66 #28

Fear Grips Gotham!" declares the cover of this December 2015 entry in DC's retro-styled series, and the image delivers on that promise — Batman and Robin stand alert in a shadowy, vine-choked setting while two menacing figures loom above them: a snarling, green-skinned creature and the straw-hatted, claw-handed Scarecrow. Michael Allred's cover art captures the bright pop aesthetic of the '66 universe while giving it a genuinely creepy edge, balancing campy charm with real threat. With Jeff Parker writing and Lukas Ketner on art, this issue looks like a terrifically fun collision of nostalgia and villainy.
