DescriptionBatman # 409 July 1987"Just Another Kid On Crime Alley" Pg 7 Inks over pencil on DC comics board Pencils: Ross Andru Inks: Dick Giordano (Signed lower right) Letters: John Costanza Writer: Max Allan Collins Jason Todd, arriving at Fay Gunn's School For Boys, discovers that it is a front for a school of crime. Batman, of course, believes it to be a fine, upstanding institution, as does Vicki Vale. Batman/Bruce Wayne uses his contacts to track down Jason's parents. It seems that his mother, Catherine, died of a drug overdose recently, while his father is believed to have been killed by Two-Face. Willis Todd evidently discovered too late that this was one boss you should never double-cross. That night, Batman comes across Jason once more removing the tires from parked cars, and is amazed to hear the young man's tale of the even more worrying curriculum at Ma Gunn's school. Batman soon interrupts Ma Gunn and her boys at an art museum and, with the unexpected help of Jason Todd, prevents them from stealing the 'Smile of Death' necklace for the Joker. Impressed with Jason, Batman decides to take the boy on as the new Robin. I was so excited to get this piece for a great price. I believe this page is the oldest in my collection. I remember getting this comic in a DC 3 pack in the late 80's. I love how you can still see a lot of the pencils on the page. Social/Sharing |
