Notes

• "Peril in Paris" is reprinted in Batman Archives, Volume 1 and Batman Chronicles, Volume 1.
• Chronologically, "Peril in Paris" takes place immediately after the events in Detective Comics #32. This is why the Batplane appears in this issue even though it was destroyed in issue #32.
• The Crimson Avenger appears on the cover to this issue, but does not appear in the issue itself.
