The first issue of Batman from 1940 featuring a couple of Joker stories and one Catwoman story in which she goes by The Cat. A story famous for a panel featuring Bagman removing Catwoman’s disguise and saying to her “Quiet or Papa spank!”

Great first issue, far superior to the first few Detective Comics issues for Batman. Loved seeing Joker’s first appearance!
