The Brave and the Bold #159

In "The Crystal Armageddon!", Batman and Ra's Al Ghul are forced into an uneasy alliance to stop Professor Hatter, a scientist whose devastating crystal formula threatens to turn all matter to stone. With the League of Assassins behind a deadly twist, the trail leads to a derelict junkyard off the coast of Hong Kong, where a desperate race against time unfolds. Written by Denny O'Neil and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Jim Aparo—pencils, inks, and lettering—this 1980 DC classic delivers high-stakes tension and a chilling showdown, all wrapped in a striking cover by Aparo.
