American Update: Brave & Bold – High-Grade Batman Team-Ups
*DC: A quartet of Silver Age issues of the Brave & the Bold, the series which by the mid-Sixties had become essentially a third Batman title, with the Gotham Guardian pairing with a new co-star each issue. The four issues listed this update have only two things in common: the inevitable presence of the Caped Crusader, and the fact that they are all in superb high grades, unusually so for the vintage. In issue #59, Batman and Green Lantern tackle the reality-warping Time Commander, a villain making his debut that issue; in issue #64, Batman and Eclipso, ordinarily a villain, work together on the side of good to battle the shapely Queen Bee; in #71, Batman and Green Arrow battle a Native American legend and in #84, Batman meets Sgt. Rock, living legend of World War II, in a story with art by the illustrious Neal Adams. As stated earlier, all of these issues are in exceptional condition, cents copies with no UK pricing, firm staples at cover and centrefold, tight sharp corners, and stunning vivid cover colour and gloss. #59 VF £57, #64 NM- £80, #71 NM £90 and #84 NM- £125.
