Customer Reviews

A must have for Batman and comics fans

This collection of Batman stories is great! Each of the stories showcased in this collection is from a different era in Batman's history... and they are all fun to read and admire. My personal favorite in this collection is O'Neil/Adams' "The Joker's Five Way Revenge," perhaps because it is from the '70's, when I began reading comics and Adams' intepretation of Batman is so life-like. Also notable is "..My Beginning...and My Probable End," by Bar/Davis/Neary, since it fills it provides another round of character development for Bruce Wayne. For a semi-campy Batman and Robin story, "Robin Dies at Dawn," delivers. Even "24/7," a tale in the post-"Bruce Wayne -Murder?" era is an interesting story of Bruce Wayne rebuilding his reputation. This collection provides a good representation of the development of Batman through the 20th century. A must have for Batman and comics fans.
