“Corruption!”

In "Corruption!", Batman teams up with Doctor Fate when an unknown force corrupts Gotham’s police force, turning them against the city they swore to protect. Written by Cary Burkett and illustrated by Don Newton, with inks by Bob Smith and colors by Jerry Serpe, this 1979 issue explores a haunting mystery rooted in a dead officer’s unresolved injustice. The cover, by Jim Aparo, captures the tension of a city under siege from within.
