2nd Joker cover; classic Joker story
Detective Comics #62 features one of the rarest classic covers from the early days of The Joker. Jerry Robinson's striking image of Batman and Robin bedeviled by a bouquet of the Joker's balloons is difficult to find in even an acceptable condition. It's also rightfully one of Robinson's most popular depictions of the legendary villain that he defined in the Joker's early years.
Veteran collectors will agree that Robinson's Joker was always in a class by itself. The artist's pioneering takes on the Clown Prince of Crime were always complex and startling, and leap years ahead of any other renditions through to the Bronze Age. This particular issue is in constant demand, and very seldom comes back on the market after being sold.
Joker fans rejoice! The legendary focal point of this 4.0 copy remains sharp and relatively free of any serious condition issues.
