The 1966 Batman Message Board

Amazing that its been five years. I'm with the majority-- I watch maybe a few times a year.

The poll makes me realize how insane I am-- I own the individual seasons, both green and red blu ray boxes, the complete purple DVD set as well as streaming versions. I need help.

Yeah Jim I was attempting humor.
Leaving this one out of the Infantino volume was ridiculous.

Detective Comics #355 from Sept 1966-- so the height of the show was when this issue was on the stands. This one is another of my favorites even though there are some ridiculous aspects to the story. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-32JShqSD6pI/XcwsU7sUEUI/AAAAAAAAQos/aaHhNmzeKdceGiY-SkqpuW5ba0K03AxFgCEwY...

Drawn by one of the top 5 Batman artists of all time, and THE Batman artist of the late Golden Age, Dick Sprang. Sprang was one of Kane's first assistants along with Jerry Robinson and the strip instantly took on a Dick Tracy quality with his work. This story was used in the Joker episode of the '66...

Here's Batman's first ever story-- it's been reprinted countless times. A few things interesting to note-- this is the ONLY appearance of this particular costume in the original canon-- the purple gloves, wide set ears, high cowl cheeks, tall boots and round belt buckle. On the original cover the gl...

No worries there I’m not going in sequence. I’m going to run stories that I think are good and relevant to the character and to the show including things like JOKERS UTILITY BELT which featured some great art by Dick Sprang, some Marshall Rogers, Carmine Infantino and a purple glove batman story for...

Beautifully done- that’s the second issue kit right? No moulded emblem but it doesn’t have the super powers head.

Completely custom made by Wes.

Those Andy’s have great taste!

I think that owes to the Adam West suit.

I can completely understand why Ian Fleming was recommended to have Bond switch from his Beretta 25 caliber to the PPK-- it's got great sites and it's extremely accurate for a small gun. It matches my full size Beretta 92 almost to the point on the range-- and that's saying something. For you non-gu...
