The Complete Covers and Flashlight Projections

The Dark Knight, The Caped Crusader and The World’s Greatest Detective--these are just a few of the names given to Batman-the second superhero created by DC Comics in the late 1930s.

First appearing in Detective Comics #27 Batman would go on to become a worldwide phenomenon, right up to the modern age.


Insight Editions presents the first 300 Detective Comics covers (pre-Batman and Batman) stretching from the Golden Age to the early Silver Age.


The small, square bound book: DC Detective Comics The Complete Covers Vol. 1, is packed with cover illustrations and resembles the old Big Little Books popular in the early part of the 20th Century.


If you’re a Batman fan this book makes a fine addition to your collection.



Created in the same format, the Wonder Woman The Complete Covers Vol. 1, traces the first 300 Wonder Woman comic book covers.


The Amazon Princess dominates each cover beginning in the Gold Age and culminating in the early Silver Age.


The first true super heroine, Wonder Woman would go on to influence other super heroines that followed her.


The Wonder Woman movie is the most successfully DC Comics superhero movie (beside Batman) and has encouraged movie studios to create other super heroine movies helmed by women directors.


Protected in its clear plastic slipcase, the Batman Flashlight Projections Heroes And Villains is a collection of clear plastic sheets with black silhouette images of Batman and his fellow heroes and rogue's gallery,


Shine a flashlight through the plastic panels and the images appear on any flat surface.


Holy Bat-Signal Batman!  The Dark Knight never looked so good!
