*DC: For the first of two visits to our ongoing Batmania Max feature this week, we visit the years 1960/61, where, under the editorial reins of Jack Schiff, the Batman title was consumed (so it seemed) by aliens and monsters. Fine examples in this update, which features Batman #135, #137, #138, #140, #142 & #143 (most pictured below with aliens and monsters galore!). Issue #140, in addition to having a Batwoman cover, also as a bonus has a Joker story and, rare for this time, a Superman appearance. Most of these cents copies come in at around VG to FN- and the £60-£80 price bracket. A far cry from the Dark Knight Detective, but zany and charming in their own way!
