Notes:
This key issue delineates the histories of the Batmen of Earth 1 and Earth 2. In this issue, Batman gains the yellow circle on his chest, which the Batman of Earth 2 never gained. An Earth 1/Earth 2 distinction purist may argue that this issue is the first appearance of the Batman of Earth 1.
