Batman #3 and #4

So yeah, these two issues are both not nearly as cool as the last two. There's about one story in each one that's worth the time it took to read them. In #3, Batman fights a gang run by The Ugliest Man In The World, and his origin story contains one of the best lines of dialogue in comic book history:

"What have you got there Tyler?"
"It's a hypo needle filled with a lot of drugs I mixed together haphazardly! I'll pretend to inject it into Carson!"

In #4, Batman and Robin fight Blackbeard. Also Batman guts a shark with a cutlass. Blackbeard turns out to be a two-bit mug though.

Yep. Pretty unremarkable.
