Indexer Notes

Story continued from Batman (DC, 1940 series) #448 (not included in this collection, was not illustrated by Breyfogle).
Story concludes in Batman (DC, 1940 series) #449 (not included in this collection, was not illustrated by Breyfogle).

Story includes a note "The Penguin Affair, while not presented in its entirety, is included in this collection to provide the full breadth of Norm Breyfogle's Batman portfolio." It is included out of chronological order at the back of the volume even though it has story elements, including the introduction of C'th, that are picked up in Detective Comics #616, which was included earlier in this collection.
