The Batman and the Globe and Mail

[dewline]

This may be a mildly amusing error, and no more than that. In today's hardcopy edition of the Globe and Mail, that storied newspaper reminds us that On This Date, Detective Comics # 27, featuring the first appearance of the Batman was allegedly released to the public. The decades-long tendency of comics publishers to release issues two months ahead of the published cover date has apparently not occurred to the people handling that that item on page A2.

Therefore, a possibly amusing error.
