Batman: The Brave and the Bold #2 (Raw VF/NM) - DC Comics (Main Cover)

Batman: The Brave and the Bold #2, published by DC Comics! Written by a powerhouse lineup of creators—including Tom King, Ed Brisson, Christopher Cantwell, and Joëlle Jones—with art by Mitch Gerads, Jeff Spokes, Javier Rodríguez, and Joëlle Jones, this second issue continues four thrilling ongoing serialized tales across Gotham City and the broader DC Universe.

The top center features the classic pink and white "BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD" series title logo framed by the Bat-symbol, while the upper-left corner displays the purple DC bullet logo indicating Issue #2.

The compelling main cover illustration—drawn by series artist Simone Di Meo (signed S. Di Meo near the bottom-left edge)—presents a grinning Joker in a pink tux jacket playing a deadly game of chess, holding up a Batman chess piece while Bat-family pieces (Nightwing, Robin, Catwoman, Batgirl) stand arranged across the checkered board.

This unslabbed raw issue is in high-grade condition (estimated VF/NM 9.0 or better), featuring sharp corners, pristine edges, and crisp color registration—making it an essential addition for Batman, Joker, Tom King, and anthology completionists.
