The Detective Comics #66 in context

Why collectors care

The first appearance of Two-Face, cover-dated August 1942, created by Bob Kane. Harvey Dent is among Batman's most psychologically resonant antagonists and a fixture of the character's major adaptations.

How to identify it

Detective Comics #66, August 1942. The cover famously splits Two-Face's image down the middle, which is the quickest visual confirmation.

Common mistakes

Golden Age restoration and trimming are the primary risks. Buy certified and read the label carefully.

Grade considerations

Wartime paper stock is prone to brittleness and tanning. Page quality and restoration status often matter more than the numeric grade.

Newest recorded sale: 2026-08-23. This summary describes stored history.

Inclusion

All 1 recorded eBay sold (completed) listings in this historical sample, grouped by grader and grade. Asking prices and active listings are never counted.

Outlier handling

Within any grade that has four or more sales, a price below one-third of, or above three times, the within-grade median is set aside before the median is taken. No sales were set aside on this rule for this item.

A comic sale that sold for under a third of the median of this issue's lower-grade sales is also set aside as a probable reprint, facsimile, later printing or restored copy, since a higher grade of the same book should not sell for less. No sales were set aside on this rule for this item.
