I don't have the issue handy. There's a bunch of info on it at this site -- http://www.comics.org/details.lasso?id=33316

All new stories and art in it.

Remember it, and I own it. All of the 60 and 100 page comics like that are going up in price, due to a sudden rush of back issue sales.

Is it just me, or does the cover text have a typo? Shouldn't it read "And this is the way it ends"?

What do you mean by "is?" Clearly, DC saw this as a potential stumbling block, and eliminated it from the cover.

I'm not sure I'd add "is"... a comma adds a little more drama, though.

"And this, the way it ends:"

But commas are just so unnecessary these days.

In the words of a former president, "that depends on what your definition of "is" is.

Wow, I DO remember that issue.... It features one of my all time favorites artists: Don Newton. A man who died well before his time unfortunately. To me, for the longest time, he was THE Batman artist.
