Story villainess Dolores Muerto appears in background, holding the leashes of two snarling wolves, but holding a raised torch instead on the trained falcon as seen on Adams' Detective Comics #395 cover. Giordano has signed art at lower right. Title logo and cover publishing indicia (including "Batman" title logo and backup Manhunter image) are pasted stats. Back has pair of DC copyright stamps. UPC at lower left was pasted over w/blank rectangle and area of original art below it. Half of this piece is missing, revealing glue staining as once applied. Piece of aged tape on back, corresponding w/shallow surface slice on front at this area. Small area of faint staining at tip of one wolf's tail, but o/w art remains clean and Exc.
