Batman in Detective Comics

Batman first appeared in Detective ComicsÓ in 1939. This vol. reproduces the second set of 300 covers of Detective Comics.Ó Batman's second 25 years are just as exciting as his first. New friends, new foes, & new plot twists all added up to the dynamic new lookÓ in 1964. In 1966, the BatmanÓ TV series took the world by storm. Full of campy irreverence, chic pop-art design, & big-name stars in villains' roles, the show was an instant hit. After the TV series had run its course, fashionably darker tones were the mode, as later embodied by the brooding look of the 1989 feature film. Through it all, the Rogues Gallery continued in full force, so this volume features an index of villains, tracking cover appearances of everyone's favorite criminals.
