I had this book and record as a kid. I used to be in awe of the artwork, and read it constantly. Glad to see it still is holding up. Thanks for posting this.
I just met him at the Michigan ComicCon and spoke to him for awhile. He was pretty interesting and had some criticism for how WB/DC is handling the DC Movies. I had him sign my Detective #400 (1st Man-Bat). Yes, he was a class act indeed.
Thanks for posting! I had this record as a child, and now that I'm grown up with a lifetime of love for old time radio, I know just how well-produced these adventures were.
I also had this as a kid along with an Incredible Hulk 45, a Spiderman one and the bigger Batman record book Gorilla City. This record freaked me out though....the narration is like classic radio. Love it.
I also had this as a kid. I expected it to be super - corny as a 46 year-old adult, but I see now the art was actually extremely good and the voice-acting was excellent!
@@Ian-hj4yt No, not all comics in the 1970s were for kids, e.g., Warren Publishing, Skywald, Marvel black-and-white titles, "Heavy Metal" and its many copycats, plus dozens of underground titles. Try again. I can tell you've never read anything from that era.
@@Ian-hj4yt I'd say the better Batman titles from that era were such that an older reader could probably read them and enjoy them as well as the customary kid audience, e.g., the Neal Adams issues or the Marshall Rogers run.
@@julianhermanubis6800 That was the point. Those comics feel like a sequel to the Adam West series but with a slightly darker tone. The same old lighthearted Batman facing scarier villains without Robin.

Neil Adams is a class artist.

40+ yrs later and it all sounds so familiar
Oh, yes.
I had this record as a kid in the late 70s. It always scared me. I need to go buy this.
Same, and thus my fondness for DC and Marvel lore was born...
Same. Amazing to hear it again.
Totally scared me as a late 70s kid.
I had this one too.. listened to it a hundred times.
I loved these old books and records.
I still have this on vinyl!
Considering getting this vinyl for my son.
It's great to hear and see these stories again! Thanks for bringing them back!
I remember I had this record back in my childhood loved Neil Adam's art but the record scared me. Good times! Thanks for uploading it
Oh wow.. this sure brings back memories! This one was my favorite growing up! Classic Batman
My goodness, does this bring back memories…
Took me years to get them all, but this was the first one I ever got... Easter '77
I also had this as a kid along with an Incredible Hulk 45, a Spiderman one and the bigger Batman record book Gorilla City. This record freaked me out though....the narration is like classic radio. Love it.
No way! I had this as a kid! This is blowing my mind! :)
Amazing job with the video BrandonHexHD! Thanks!
I can't tell you the memories this brings back. I need to re-release these on album or CD
For me too. The bat screams gave me chills, both as a kid and now 30 years later.
oh that Neal Adams art!
I still have it on record....
This art still holds up by today's standards
jeff bird Today's standards are far below the standards of this era.
I just found a few of these comics without records. Thank you for posting these.
This one scared the crap outta me when I was little. I couldn't handle the bat screams. I listened to it once and that was it for me. lol
This is amazing. I loved this as a kid.
I had the record & comic as a kid.. Wow I listened so much I broke the record & lost the comic..
memories....wow
ah. now this is what Im talking about :D. Thanks for posting this Hex. I just loved it.
That’s more plot than you get in most movies nowadays.
Better than "Batman vs. Superman"
Hey what are we running here ? A debate ? Let's plug emmm hahahaha
As soon as I heard the clicking noises at the beginning of this story, I was taken right back to the 1970s. Wow.
wow Hex, thanks for giving a means not to do my term paper lol. Keep these coming
I had this as a kid! It was kind of scary but it was still a great story!
Neal Adams died a couple of days ago.
Great stuff!
These are great!
I also had this as a kid. I expected it to be super - corny as a 46 year-old adult, but I see now the art was actually extremely good and the voice-acting was excellent!
Is there anything that tells you who voices the characters/credits?
i had this in 84
I had this, but it's been lost over the years. I DO still have the one with the Joker, Stacked Cards. Love it!
Lit
Why's Manbat wearing a Dracula cape instead of a lab coat
Oooowww! Let go, you beast! You’re tearing my throat!
ugh, this shit fucked me up as a kid
Does anyone know who voiced Batman on this?
Robin should have used the sneezing powder on the woman again when she turned back to human.
I like Batman's voice! Batman nowadays sounds like a chain smoker
Longshoreman X Unless it's Kevin Conroy ;)
thnx
dessins du maitre neal adams, batman prend une nouvelle dimenssion .
It's insane that Neal Adams's amazing art was used to illustrate what was a cheap kids' throwaway record.
What do you mean? The 70s comics were still for kids, just not as campy as the last 2 decades
