In "The Man Who Could See the Future!", a clairvoyant's chilling predictions send shockwaves through Gotham, culminating in a bold challenge to Batman himself. Written by Edmond Hamilton and illustrated by Bob Kane with inks by Charles Paris, this 1948 issue sees the Dark Knight risk everything when the seer claims he'll die aboard an ocean liner. The cover, also by Bob Kane and Charles Paris, captures the suspense with a striking, shadowed image of the Caped Crusader facing an uncertain fate.
