The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #1
In "Glove Story," the first issue of *The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries*, Batman enlists the help of Mystery Inc. when his original purple gloves—key pieces of his earliest costume—are replaced with perfect fakes made in 2021. Written by Ivan Cohen and illustrated by Dario Brizuela, with colors by Franco Riesco and letters by Saida Temofonte, the story splits the gang across time: Fred and Daphne team up with Batman and Robin in the present, while Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby are mysteriously sent back to Batman’s formative years by Dr. Carter Nichols. The cover, also by Dario Brizuela, captures the eerie contrast of past and present.

The original purple gloves that were part of Batman’s first costume (high pointed cowl ears, narrow eye slits, and no chest emblem oval) have been replaced with fakes manufactured in 2021. Batman asks the Mystery Inc. gang to assist him in solving this odd and unexplainable event. Fred and Daphne work with Batman and Robin in the present day of 2021, while Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby are regressed to the past (and Batman’s earliest days) by the classic DC Comics character Dr. Carter Nichols.
