American Update: Batmania continues: A Dynamic Dozen of the Dynamic Duo’s Giants – Batman 80 Pagers, Giants and Annuals
*DC: The 80 Page Giants starring Batman and Robin were a regular attraction through the 1960s and 1970s, extra-length editions of the ongoing series re-presenting stories from previous decades seldom seen by the contemporary audience in those pre-Internet days. We have a stack of these stonkers new in, from #176 to #233, plus the 100-Page #257 and Annual #7, many new to our listings. Themes include Fantastic Foes, Strangest Cases, Danger Around the World, Deadly Traps, All-Villain Issue and the scarcer-than average #208 (pictured), with a new framing sequence by E. Nelson Bridwell and Gil Kane surrounding stories of Poison Ivy, Batgirl, Batwoman, Catwoman and more, asking the question: ‘Who is the most important woman in Batman’s life?’. Our copy of #208, with a small piece of tape on the front cover, is GD/VG £10; details of the others, as always, in our online catalogue.
