Detective Comics #578 p. 2 Batman Year Two by Todd McFarlane Original 11x17 Art
Todd McFarlane on pencils and inks. This is the first (and only) all McFarlane issue of Batman in any series. Back in 1987, Todd McFarlane worked on Detective Comics issues 576, 577, & 578. These issues were parts 2-4 of the "Year Two" story vs. Alan Davis & Paul Neary did the art for part 1 (Detective #575). Alfredo Alcala did the inks over McFarlane's pencils for issues 576 & 577. Issue 578 is the only issue with all McFarlane art. "Year Two" is the famous story vs.
The Reaper where Batman decided to carry a gun and planned to kill Joe Chill to get revenge for killing his parents many years earlier. Released the same year as Frank Miller's successful "Year One" story, editors at DC decided to title this arc "Year Two" and make it an early telling of Batman's formative years. I'm narrowing the focus of my collection and looking to downsize.
