If that is an actual picture of the book it is the only photo I’ve seen of a copy that is still white. Usually the title background is at minimum dingy.

Different times Jermo, different times. He couldn’t fly at that point if memory serves and both he and Batman killed the bad guys.
A lot of that
oldancient stuff is almost in a foreign language. -

Never knew that outright killed the bad guys though…that’s interesting. I thought that was just borrowed from those days and killing off superheroes/villains was a relatively knew idea.

You can find reprints of the story at a reasonable price. Usually around a big anniversary the first issue gets a reprint edition and your local comic shop likely has a couple in their back issue bins.
DC has a terrific line of reprint editions called Archive Editions for most of their books.
They are hardbound with glossy paper. You can usually pick them up on ebay at a discount from MSRP.
