Vintage Silver Age BATMAN COMIC BOOK Cover # 222


I have a friend who is a HUGE Beatles Fan & I mean, who isn't! Great band, classic music. The funny thing is everybody teases him & calls him Mr. McCartney because his actual name is Paul & he's so goo-goo for The Beatles. Anyway, he sent me this photo of a vintage Silver-Age comic book he has in his personal collection. It's BATMAN issue #222 that features a mock "Beatles" cover.The story is all about a "rock band" who looks exactly like the Beatles & one of the members is dead. Just like the propaganda the real band used to have with the famous ABBEY ROAD album cover where there were supposedly a lot of clues saying, "Paul Was Dead" ( One clue was Paul was the only one bare-footed ). Thanks for sending in the photo "Mr. McCartney", it's a beauty!
