Note: At this point of the 'Batman' run, Editora Cinco is reprinting stories it had already published in the previous two years. Some of them with the same cover as originally printed, and others with covers that did not have anything to do with the interiors. Although this story's main feature stars Batman and Kamandi, and the back-up feature stars Batgirl in a reprint of issue #6, the cover shows Green Lantern, Green Arrow, and Black Canary from an earlier issue in the series, Batman #25.

Note: Starting with issue #54, Editora Cinco reprints its 'Batman' run in the same publishing order, presumably upon running out of material. Issue #58 is a reprint of issue #5, and it would have been the fourth time using the same cover during the series; however, to avoid re-using the same cover once again, Editora Cinco decided to use the cover of the already published issue #17 instead, although with the content of  issue  #5 previously published in April 1986, at more than twice the original price.
