Although Dr. Death was the first Batman villain to appear in more than one issue of Detective Comics, he appeared in issues 29 and 30, not 35 as I mentioned on the show. The next villain to appear in more than one issue was the vampire known as The Monk who appeared in Detective Comics 31 and 32. Hugo Strange first appeared in Detective Comics 36 and later in Batman 1. As happens from time to time I do need to correct one thing I mentioned.

I recently purchased the Famous First Edition #C-28 comic with hardcover at an estate sale it is signed and dated with an a typical bob kane sketch of batman on the blank leaf page. The local comic dealer suggested it would be worth buying a copy if just for the dust jacket to place on the signed one with drawing. Any luck Ray? And would you suggest this action as well with the resale value be worth the purchase price of comic and dust jacket? I am an a fine art dealer and mainly work in Modernist art 1890's - 1960's, when I have had original comic book art I have never got much for it the most exciting was the final pencil spiderman cover but a "Super Spidey" so not by Stan Lee. Sketch with marvel stamps and sealed certificate but it was only worth a couple hundred dollars (ten years ago). I have been passing up original comic illustration art ever sense until this one as I thought the reprint of the comic might be of some value? Any advice?? Hello Bob and Com.
