So I wanted to go back to the first Batman comic and read all of the historical adventures one by one. DC made that possible for me with the chronicles. For any Batman fan out there, this is a must read. It was so much fun to read the early days of Batman, and see what made him and what stays with him. Suprisingly you'll see that a lot of the traditional Batman themes were created very early on. From the very beginning we are introduced to the Joker and Robin. The 40s style, sometimes laughable, ... Read More

WARNING: SOME SPOILERS THROUGHOUT!!!
"Batman Chronicles, Vol. 1" is the first in what is currently (that I own/know of) a seven part collector's series that compiles "... every 'Batman' story in exact chronological order" (taken from the black bar at the top of the front cover). Inside are comics, which in their original trade paperback (TPB) form, are worth on the order of some $100,000 or more (together and stand-alone); among which are:

I give this book 4 stars, but not because of the quality of the stories themselves.

So be warned that this is not the Batman of today, and some of the work is not easy on the eye and may require patience from the reader.
That being stated, Bill Finger, Bob Kane and friends introduce cultural icons Batman, ... Read More

All that good-timey old comic feel mixed with pulp noir!
This book collects the first dozen or so Batman stories EVER PUBLISHED. The stories are printed in FULL COLOR and were originally published from 1939 to 1940. This is pure, unadulterated Batman, straight from the original creators!
Reading these stories is like going back in time to the 1930s. The stories are very much rooted in the noir style of the time. Gangsters in long coats, wielding tommy guns. Bruce Wayne in an ... Read More
