Bullets fly but thugs and guns are no match for Batman's plan of playing the phantom until the ammo runs out.

This Black and White 8 page story, crafted solely by the pencil and pen of one of the great masters of comic art, John Buscema, was his first work for DC after retiring from a long career with Marvel. It was also his one and only Batman work. Two years had barely gone by when John would develop stomach cancer and die at the age of 72.
