Reprint Notes
Notes Intro of the Huntress, the daughter of the Catwoman and the Batman. Jim Corrigan appears only as Inspector Jim Corrigan, not as The Spectre (updated Sept. 9/2008 from info from Ted Watson via the Error Tracker). Story continued in part from previous issue. Story concludes from end of last issue. New story with Strike Force begins immediately afterwards.

john cruz Because this issue didnt introduce Helena as the Huntress in All-Star Comics. Issue 69, the previous issue did and as a cameo to boot. I have also made notations about Helena in issue 69,as well as making a reference link for DC Superstars # 17 (origin) as her being the Earth-2 Batman and Catwoman's daughter and Corrigan's cameo as police inspector is already noted above under characters. 2010-10-21 00:20:14 Editing Editing

Donald Dale Milne John -
Unless something is just plain wrong with this Note from Sequence 2, could you please put it back in? Or let me know what was wrong?
"Intro of the Huntress, the daughter of the Catwoman and the Batman. Jim Corrigan appears only as Inspector Jim Corrigan, not as The Spectre (updated Sept. 9/2008 from info from Ted Watson via the Error Tracker)."
