Terrific buy for old time Batman comics.
Format: Hardcover
These Batman Omnibus collections are great for compiling these still amazing comics in an inexpensive way. Much cheaper than trying to get the original comics.

This era of Batman is well-written and beautifully drawn
Format: Hardcover
This era of Batman is well-written and beautifully drawn. But that consistency is also its weakness. These are mostly detective stories, hardly any super villains, mostly gangsters and corrupt businessman. Batwoman is introduced here, and Bat-hound is featured in certain stories. Even Superman and the Joker appear briefly. Someone commits a crime, Batman figures out who did it, and the story ends in 12 pages. The Batman team was a well-oiled machine in the 1950s Still I recommend it. Worth it for the art alone and some great novelty stories.

Good for depression.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
A lot of modern day comics have a drab flat look to them, the tales are typically high stakes crossover events that require lots of in depth reading with low pay off. These take me back to a less complicated time, without being constantly reminded of how dire the world is today. This book is full of fun one off events, that keep you hooked. Also, while I enjoy a lone brooding Batman, I am also a big fan of friendly easy going Batman and Robin, Robin is the reader inserted, asking all the right questions. All in all this book is worth every penny, and I look forward to sharing it with future generations.

Wonderful reprint book!
Format: Hardcover
As an older collector, who is downsizing his collection, i am able to purchase a great reprint book to pull off the shelf anytime and relive my childhood, while at the same time selling my original copies and letting someone else enjoy the older books, and the ads in them. bright colorful pages, without the chance of damaging my older comics. I highly recommend this long awaited volume, and eagerly await the next volume 2 of the Silver Age Batman stories!
