    Default Batman Back Issue Haul Video

    I picked up some cool Batman back issues this week (including a Golden Age delight!) and some other Batman stuff that I wanted to share.
    Check out my video and let me know what you think:

    Batman #34! Well done. It looks in pretty great shape for a comic from 1946. Great to see.

    Yep. I always love seeing old comics. Is it me or does Batman look a little fat on that cover?

    Also regarding Dark Detective, maybe you already know this, but its actually a loose sequel to an old 1970s story called Strange Apparitions from Detective Comics #469-479. Strange Apparitions is one of my favorite Batman storyarcs of all time.

    Totall not you. I was actually going to comment on how much of a lard ass Bats is in the picture. HaHa.

    That's a real nice haul you've got there. Totally enjoyed the video, too. Makes me want to vintage collect. I have an old '57 'Tec (along with a '57 Action and 2 '57 Connan), but it's it terrible condition (didn't buy it, I found it.)

    Regarding the stain on one Silver Age book; don't worry about it. Expect stains, creases, tears (can be patched up with tape if too severe) or possibly little scribbles (perhaps some kid marking property), from probably kids who didn't know the art of taking care of a comic, because probably back then, comics were regarded as rags of entertainment. As long as the interior is still readbly legible, and the story hopefully just as fun an experience as perhaps a kid in the fifties-sixties reading it, from perhaps a drug store, with an ice cream soda.

    Otherwise, good grab, especially on Batman #190, although sayin' it as an Oswald Cobblepot favorite Bat-Foe fan. Pengy's especially quite the Bat-nemesis in the Mid-Late sixties, in the comics and the television show.

    And, enjoy your Detective Comics #697-698, be sure to look for #699 as well, to complete the story - Lock-Up was quite a Batman Animated Series, then comics, vigilante- villain figure

    That's a fun haul. If you're a big fan of the Batman Animated Series I would really just spend the money and buy the entire set. It's totally worth it. I agree with you that I liked it as a kid but honestly even like it more as an adult because I can appreciate the art direction a lot more.

    nice

    If I won the lottery, I'd start an all-inclusive batman collection of my own

    maybe even open a museum.

    unless there's already some kind of batman museum.
    Grandparents dead - please no jokes

    make mine DC, thanks
