The others seemed treated either as another ordinary issue or part of some crossover. Possibly related to Batman's first appearance being in 'Tec #27 (which also got some anniversary issues on related numbers)?Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02085791199447459918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-46063215019343414072014-07-06T09:00:53.460-04:002014-07-06T09:00:53.460-04:00Page 5 almost looks like an EC page from a few yea...Page 5 almost looks like an EC page from a few years before snuck into a DC Comic!

Aww, I'll miss these weekly bits...<br /><br />Nice bit to trick the crooks at the end...<br /><br />Elsewhere among the JLAers...<br /><br />Re: Batman: The Dynamic Duo in the 300th issue of Detective encounter Mr. Polka-Dot, a villain who can turn the dots on his costume into weaponry. The Polka-Dot Man turned out to not be a one-shot character, as he reappeared decades later in the 90s (now grimmer and grittier like everything else Bat-related, appearing as a now-washed-up villain). He also was on "Batman: the Brave and the Bold," though he didn't fight the Sea King IIRC.<br />Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02085791199447459918noreply@blogger.com
