Batman #131 (1960 DC Comics)

Batman #131 (1960 DC Comics)

Batman #131 was published by DC Comics in 1960.  It features the Batwoman cover and Batman and Robin as a team.    Written by Bill Finger with artwork from Ira Schnapp and Sheldon Moldoff.

It has several stories including one with Bat-Hound where he is struck and given amesia.  I certainly wouldn’t want my dogs having amnesia but Bat-Hounds seems to handle it just fine as he goes on a series of adventures saving people and at the end of the story, has an operation to cure the amnesia so he is back to good old Bat-Hound.

The issue is quite spendy in higher grades so please examine all the pics as this is a low grade book with a good portion of the cover missing but it is a good hole filler for anyone who is on a budget and looking to collect some of the keys.

ORIGIN STORY OF ACE THE BAT-HOUND

The Bat-Hound, also known as Ace the Bat-Hound, is a fictional canine character in the DC Comics universe. His origin story varies slightly depending on the continuity, but the general concept remains the same.

In most versions, Ace was introduced as a loyal and crime-fighting companion to Batman and Robin. His first appearance was in “Batman” issue #92 in June 1955. The story, titled “Ace, the Bat-Hound,” was written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Sheldon Moldoff.

The origin of Ace typically involves a stray dog who is taken in by Batman and Robin. In some versions, Batman rescues Ace from a gang of criminals or saves him from an accident, while in others, the dog simply wanders into the Batcave on his own.

Once Ace becomes a member of the Batman family, he undergoes training to become a crime-fighting partner. Batman and Robin equip Ace with a utility collar that includes a radio receiver for receiving commands, a Bat-symbol-emblazoned collar, and other gadgets to aid in his crime-fighting endeavors.

Ace often assists Batman and Robin in their investigations, using his keen senses and loyalty to track down criminals. He has been portrayed as an intelligent and capable dog, possessing skills such as tracking scents, detecting hidden objects, and even helping in combat situations.
