Detective Comics Vol 1, Issue #370

Newsstand Edition
Release date: December, 1967

Estimated Grade VG (borderline VG-). Moderate spine/edge wear with a stack of color-breaking ticks, multiple cover creases, and noticeable corner blunting/handling—presents as a solid reader, but the accumulated creasing keeps it out of straight VG.

The Nemesis From Batman's Boyhood! Batman and Robin tail the Blitzkrieg Bandit, but Bats gets shook when he recognizes the crook as Bart Lambert—his childhood bully. Lambert uses that old fear to tag Batman and slip the net, then breaks into Wayne Manor and does it again. Robin goes after him, fakes getting iced to push Batman over the edge, and it works: Batman storms Lambert’s hideout, finally buries the trauma, and hauls his tormentor in—while Robin pops up alive with the “gotcha” grin.
