Behind BATMAN VS 3 VILLAINS OF DOOM "Crime Parade"

We Have Already Witnessed...

...how a Penguin comic book story was adapted into the premiere Batman prose novel Batman vs 3 Villains of Doom in 1966 by "Winston Lyon" aka William Wollfolk!

Now the Comedic Crown Prince of CrimeThe Joker, has his turn to torment the Dynamic Duo in a story from DC's Detective Comics #124 (1947) by writer Edmond Hamilton, pencilled by Bob Kane himself, and inked by George Roussos, converted from this illustrated version to text below!
Pop Culture Note: The title "Crime Parade" is based on the popular live weekly show Your Hit Parade,  which ran on radio from 1935 to 1953, overlapping with a TV version that ran from 1950 to 1959, featuring a in-house band and various big-name vocalists performing the best-selling songs from that week!
