Way,way cool.I wonder if there is a Batman: Elseworld Tales is in the mix. Great , well worth being in any comic lover collection .The Dark knight, The Killing Joke, Knight fall, are some of my faves . Ahem..... I love The Distinguished Competition, " . As always thank you much my friend . " Nuff said " bye 👍 . Looking forward to move review . " Till then make mine Marvel "
I really love those early SUPERMAN stories because he’s such a smart ass and often wields his powers just because he can. He has no patience for any criminals and often lets them have it just on convenient principle. Of course later they cleaned him up and made him more righteous and responsible, but this era where he’s a wild rogue agent is really interesting and more like 80’s Batman. The first issues of THE SPECTRE are the same and I hope those come out in this epic FINEST series. I think by default kids were just tougher in that era than they became after the war. Then the Code was imposed and comics really went off the deep end with being condescending. Great look at this new series, my friend! Keep ‘em coming!
Thanks Glen, great points there about these early Superman adventures. I've finished the book now and although a tad predicable, they were great fun. Most of the books I've never read before so really enjoyed the new (to me) ones. I'm sure some Spectre will come in due course.
I have just finished Batman Y1&2 and I thought it was fantastic. Hoping to get Justice Society for xmas. According to those who have mapped the volumes , it could easily be 40 volumes for just the golden age of Superman.
It's true, I'm definitely going to be selective. That's why I have skipped the Wonder Woman GN for now. I'll pick up pretty much all the silver age ones though and the best of what came later. I too have a few I'm hoping for as presents 🙂
