Dick Giordano The Joker #1 Cover Original Art (DC, 1975). This marked the first time that DC gave a villain his own regular comic! This spectacular cover features the main five of Batman's own rogues' gallery... the Joker, the Penguin, the Riddler, Catwoman, and Two-Face. Created in ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 10" x 15". There is whiteout art correction and clean-up on the art (notably in Riddler's receding hairline), and there is a minor bit of scoring on the board near the Joker for a moved word balloon. The piece is matted with a copy of the published comic and glass front framed to 27" x 24". Lightly toned and in Very Good condition.
