    Glow cover with Deadman. The Deadman Connection Part 2 of 3: Cult of the Mummy - Written by Doug Moench. Art by Kelley Jones and John Beatty. The Dark Knight and special guest star, Deadman, take their investigation to Peru, where they battle an army of mercenaries who have enslaved the native population! 32 pages, full color. NOTE: As noted in the letters column of #534, some key dialogue was garbled on page 4 of #531, and word balloons were out of sequence in the last panel of page 18. On page 4, Bruce Wayne should have said: "It may be that all the subatomic particles in existence are interconnected, forming a single universal and non-local consciousness of which any one piece contains all the information required to replicate the entire universe, just as any living cell contains all the non-local genetic information necessary to clone an entire new organism." And the correct sequence of page 18's dialogue is: BATMAN: "Put your arms around my neck, Brand - and hold on tight!" DEADMAN: "No way on a first date, pal." BATMAN: "They're coming - and there's no other way across." DEADMAN: "Hey, you ain't the only one who can swing through the air with the greatest of ease..." 36 Pages, Full Color. Cover price $2.50.
