Detective Comics #652 & #653

Detective Comics #652 & #653 were both written by Chuck Dixon and Drawn by Graham Nolan.

I wasn't a big Batman fan when Chuck Dixon started writing the series. Something about the character just didn't appeal to me, so I stayed away until Robin got his own monthly series. I have no idea why I was drawn to that comic, but I enjoyed Chuck Dixon's writing so much I have tracked down about half his run on Detective (which he wrote for almost 100 issues #644-738)

Fast paced and visually exciting, Mr. Dixon's Batman is one of my favourites. I have no idea why these comics aren't worth more money (I guess being published in the 90's means there is hundreds of thousands of copies out there) but I'm kinda glad they are as cheap as they are. Anytime I see a Chuck Dixon Batman comic I buy it. I know it is going to be a solid story. Infact, I react so quickly, I've often bought comics I already own. Like these two.

This story takes place towards the start of his run on the series, and has The Huntress guest star for 2 issues. It's always fun to watch these characters interact. She is trying to do good, and he is judging her the entire time....and she is sure she isn't going to measure up.

If you haven't read Chuck Dixon, then this is a great intro to his style. If you have, then you know any Dixon Batman is a good comic. $1.00 each, might as well get both.
