INSIDE THE BATMAN: Steve Englehart delves into the Clown Prince of Crime’s terrifying psyche — and the impact of Silver St. Cloud learning the Darknight Detective’s secret… Welcome to INSIDE THE BATMAN: THE STEVE ENGLEHART INTERVIEWS, an issue-by-issue exploration of the greatest Batman story of all time — Steve Englehart and Marshall Rogers’ seminal 1977 Detective Comics run.

But first, we’re going to tie up a couple of very important loose ends from ‘Tec #474 — because they feed directly into the opening of #475. Dan Greenfield: We are now finally up to the last two issues — and the Joker.
