Batman #451 Comic Book

This item is a copy of Batman comic book, issue number 451. The cover art prominently features The Joker, depicted in a purple trench coat and hat, with green hair and a wide, menacing grin. He is actively firing a weapon, emitting a bright yellow-orange blast, and is surrounded by numerous flying bats, some appearing as though they are under his control or part of his chaotic presence. In the upper left corner, a smaller image of Batman in his traditional blue and grey costume is visible, overlooking the scene. The comic's title, 'BATMAN,' is displayed in large, white, stylized letters with purple outlining against a dark, presumably night sky background, which also features a faint silhouette of Batman's head. The 'DC' logo is in the upper left corner, along with the issue number '451' and the original price of 'US $1.00 / CAN $1.25'. The publication date is visible near the barcode as 'LATE JUL 90' or 'JULY 24, 1990', indicating its release. The comic appears to be paperback, typical of standard comic book construction from that era. Visible condition issues include some wear and tear along the edges and corners, consistent with age and handling. There are discernible creases and some minor discoloration, particularly along the spine and edges. The colors on the cover, while still vibrant, show signs of aging, with slight fading in some areas. The overall quality of the printing and artwork suggests a standard comic book production from the early 1990s. The artwork, characterized by its dynamic poses and bold colors, is indicative of the late 1980s/early 1990s comic art style, focusing on action and character expression. No specific artist's signature or special markings are immediately visible, beyond the standard DC Comics branding.
