NOT A HOAX! NOT A DREAM!: BATMAN IN THE SEVENTIES

After I finished reading the Post-CRISIS adventures of Superman and Wonder Woman in early 2019, I decided to stick with DC and visit what is, in my mind, the definitive era for the third member of DC's so-called "Trinity". Thus a journey through Batman's adventures in the 1970s! Unlike many of my review projects, this one doesn't cover a specific run of issues or follow a particular creative team. Instead, it's a "curated" look at Batman in the seventies, using whatever material is available in my various Batman collected editions.

I really enjoyed reading your curated collection of Bat-seventies stories..I'm sure you've seen it already, but just in case, issue 1 of 5 Star Super-Hero Spectacular (1977) has a Batman tale that seems to be the essence of the seventies, a James Bond style Alps sequence, the Lazarus pit, even a reverse swipe of Neal Adams full page Bat pic (the missing belt panel). Definitely worth a look if you haven't seen it. Particularly for the odd/crotch shot opening splash page. Written by
Martin Pasko with some great Adams-eque art by
Michael Netzer
