* SmokescreenCrime: It was long believed that the shooting of Thomas and Martha Wayne by Joe Chill was just a random robbery-homicide. Issue #235 reveals that Chill was hired by mob boss Lex Moxon to kill Thomas as revenge for getting Moxon arrested and imprisoned. Bruce believes that the reason he wasn't killed that night was so that he could testify that his parents were simply the victims of a violent robbery and thus pull attention away from Moxon as a suspect.

The comic started out as an anthology comic with each issue containing several unrelated adventures. The first issue introduced a mix of two-fisted sleuths with names like "Slam" Bradley and "Speed" Saunders as well as more exotic detectives like "Cosmo, the Phantom of Disguise". Slam Bradley, one of the title's early stars, was created (from an initial character outline by the editor, Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson) by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, not yet famous as the creators of Franchise/{{Superman}}. He still shows up in DC Comics from time to time, usually when a writer wants to make a point about how comics have changed over the years.
