We kick off the countdown at the very beginning of the comic-book timeline. Detective Comics — the title that literally gives DC its initials — had been running for nearly two decades by the time it hit a round 250, smack in the middle of the Silver Age.

The issue

In the lead story, "Batman's Super-Enemy," a small-time crook named John Stannar stumbles onto a crashed, abandoned spaceship loaded with advanced alien gadgetry. Suddenly armed with futuristic weapons, he becomes the first human to wield this technology and briefly outguns the Dynamic Duo, springing his henchmen and running circles around Gotham's finest. Batman has to out-think a foe he can't out-fight. The issue also carries two backup features typical of the era's anthology format.
