Detective Comics #266
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Satellite of Gotham City," Detective Comics #266 delivers a quirky 1959 tale where the Manhunter’s routine crime-fighting takes an unexpected turn with the arrival of the Masked Avenger—a self-styled hero trying to win the heart of a woman by proving himself. Written by Jack Miller and illustrated by Joe Certa, with Curt Swan and Stan Kaye handling the cover, the issue blends pulp energy with a touch of romantic absurdity.
When the Manhunter’s routine of stopping criminals gets thrown off by a new, self-styled hero called the Masked Avenger—someone with no real skills but a desperate dream of winning the heart of the woman he loves—the streets of Gotham become a stage for a clash of intentions, where justice and ambition collide.
