| Very nice find. In case you're unaware, the Canadian DCs like this one are a bit thinner than their U.S. counterparts. If you check Grand Comics Database index for Batman #61 from the States you'll probably find that one of the backup features is missing from the Canadian edition. | ||

| weren't the Canadian editions also B&W...or am I thinking of the earlier reprints?? I think at some time there was also a ban on importing US books - hence the published in Canada. Always keep my eyes open for these but never seen one!! @dartelum where did you find this?? |

Quote:Originally Posted by JLS_Comics yeah, yeah...that was what I was thinking of, early to mid 40's though. This book is from the 50's so not a Canadian White....I think this book came about because of an import ban on US books so they just published them here instead |
