4. Deathmask

Detective Comics # 437 (1974)

Another one that's just sorta fine.

Bruce Wayne is attending a museum opening which is already a bad idea. Museum openings in the DC Universe go well precisely zero percent of the time. They will always get robbed or have some sort of evil curse. In this instance, both happen!! There's a robbery and that robbery is stopped by someone wearing a cursed mask. Batman tracks the cursed mask and eventually solves the myst"”I'm very bored by this.

It's not just a fine story, I think it's kind of actually bad. It's really deeply boring. I started reading it and had the impulse to start cleaning my apartment. I developed a deep interest in watching the grass grow. I was so friggin' bored. It's weird that this is even included in this collection of great or important Batman stories. And it's a shame because it has good Jim Aparo art and it's written by Archie Goodwin who is a phenomenal writer. His Manhunter is glorious. It just feels like two great creators coming together and whiffing on all three pitches.

One of the Greatest Batman Stories of All Time: Sadly, no.
