Batman: Shadow of the Bat #50

May 1996 · DC · 1.95 USD; 2.75 CAD
“50th Issue Villain Special!”

"50th Issue Villain Special!" celebrates Batman's milestone with a gallery of iconic rogues in chilling, nightmare-inspired cameos—Clayface, Ventriloquist, Scarface, Rhino, Amygdala, Tally-Man, Corrosive Man, Mahakala, Robin, The Hood, Anarky, and more—all glimpsed in fleeting, haunting moments. Written by Alan Grant and illustrated by a rotating team of artists including Bret Blevins, Norm Breyfogle, Vince Giarrano, Barry Kitson, and Dave Taylor, with inks by Ray McCarthy and Rob Leigh, colors by Pamela Rambo and Android Images, and letters by Bill Oakley, the issue’s eerie atmosphere is perfectly captured on the cover by Carl Critchlow.
