Indexer Notes

Credits for script, pencils and inks confirmed from Julius Schwartz's editorial records, provided by DC Comics (May 2007). Introduction of Golden Age Batman for Earth-2. Strange thing of note, although the Earth-2 Batman was introduced as a cameo, for some reason Dr. Mid-Nite was targeted instead by the writer for this story as being the Earth-1 Batman's closest doppelganger equivalent.
