Check out this great little piece of Bat-history from my friend Joey!

**Fun facts: the issues features the second-last Batman comic before he adopted his "new look", with more serious stories and a yellow oval around his emblem. (The final comic, Batman #163, appeared the following week, in March 5.)
**This issue marked the end of the "Martian Manhunter" feature in Detective Comics, which had been running since Detective Comics #225 (November, 1955), an issue that many people feel marked the beginning of the "Silver Age" of comics. The feature would move over to "The House of Mystery" the following month.
**DC gets its name from the initials of this comic - the first comic it published that featured all new material based on a single theme.
