Notes

This issue is reprinted in Batman: Dark Knight Archives, Volume 2 and Batman Chronicles, Volume 5.

The story of Professor Henry Ross' original name became Professor Zachary Knell when it was retold in the Batman daily newspaper strip (September 23-November 2, 1946)

Although the text says that the director of the FBI on Earth-Two at this time was G. Henry Mover, modern stories establish that J. Edgar Hoover was the director just like on Earth-One.
