Batman: The Golden Age #4
In "The Crimes of Two-Face!", Batman takes a bold new approach to outsmarting Gotham’s underworld by posing as the mysterious "Bad News" Brewster, undercutting the Penguin’s deadly crime-for-hire scheme with his own pre-planned operations. Written by Don C. Cameron and brought to life with sharp, classic flair by artists Jack Burnley and Ray Burnley, this Golden Age-inspired tale blends cunning strategy with the era’s signature tension. The cover, by Evan "Doc" Shaner, captures the noir intrigue of the story’s high-stakes game of deception.
