Key Reason the 1st appearance of Spellbinder

Estimated Grade VG- Solid 12¢ Silver Age reader with a stack of color-breaking spine ticks, noticeable edge/corner wear, and multiple cover creases (some riding through the red field), plus extra wear at the top-left/spine corner keeping it out of straight VG.

The Circle Of Terror Batman and Robin close in on the Spellbinder, but he pulls the full-stage hypnotism routine—scrambles their senses, puts them under, and slips away laughing.

The Faker-Takers of the Baker's Dozen Sue Dibny proudly “discovers” artist Pete Baker—then the big reveal turns into a vanishing act: Baker and his paintings are gone. Ralph hits the trail to sniff out the swipe and the switch.
