Research notes and sources

Corrected year to 2009: the exact magazine reads February 2009, and the contemporary January 2, 2009 Diamond shipping list includes this Kubert edition. Supplied December 31, 2008 date differs; the precise on-sale day remains qualified. Rorschach appears in the Watchmen photograph inset. Hugh Jackman’s real actor headshot is not tagged Wolverine. Robin’s civilian identity remains unconfirmed. The exact cover echoes the paired diagonal swinging figures, billowing capes, yellow field, bat-shaped masthead and/or skyline of Batman #1 (1940). Edition-specific qualifications are recorded in collector notes.
