I found out about this a while ago and went down a rabbit hole trying to find the original prose, but I didn't want to shell out for a physical copy in a collection I wasn't gonna read the rest of. Very interesting though
I read somewhere, that Case Of The Chemical Syndicate wasn't initially meant to be published. Rather it was a "sample" of what a Batman story would look like. The publishers however liked it and put it into Detective Comics No. 27, thus making it the first official Batman story.
I love these little quickies you started doing- um- maybe the wrong choice of words.
