Batman #227 — “The Demon of Gothos Mansion”, graded CGC 7.0 Off-White Pages, and this one is pure Bronze Age atmosphere. Featuring a legendary Neal Adams cover, this issue is a direct homage to Detective Comics #31, echoing the towering Batman silhouette, haunted mansion, and classic horror composition from the Golden Age.

This book marked a return to Batman’s darker roots, mysterious, eerie, and cinematic, and stands as one of the most celebrated covers in Batman history. More than just a great issue, it’s a visual conversation between eras of the Dark Knight.

Batman #139 — the first appearance of the original Bat-Girl (Betty Kane) — graded CGC 5.5 Cream to Off-White Pages. Pure early-’60s DC charm, packed with bright colors, playful action, and that unmistakable era where Gotham was bold, fun, and iconic.

This is one of those books that tells you exactly where comic history was at the time — Batwoman, Bat-Girl, Batman, and Robin all sharing the spotlight. Not about chasing perfect numbers… it’s about owning a foundational piece of the Bat-family legacy.

Some books age. Others define an era. 🟡🦇

Batman #181, the first appearance of Poison Ivy, and even though it’s only a CGC 5.5 Off-White Pages, it’s a beauty. Iconic Silver Age cover, unforgettable design, and the moment one of Batman’s most enduring foes stepped onto the page.

Some keys aren’t about perfection — they’re about history. And this one? Pure Gotham legend.
