About this Collection

This compendium collects the complete run of Batman '66, the digital-first series inspired by the classic 1960s television show. It features the campy, colorful adventures of Batman and Robin as they battle iconic villains like the Joker, Catwoman, and the Riddler in a retro, lighthearted style. The collection includes all issues from the main series, written by Jeff Parker and illustrated by a rotating team of artists, capturing the whimsical tone of the original TV series.

In "The Groovy Grave of Solomon Grundy," a groovy gang of villains—including Penguin, Catwoman, and the Joker—convene at a forgotten movie studio to hatch a scheme against Batman, unaware that the Riddler, left out of the party, is sending cryptic warnings to the Dynamic Duo. With the Allreds' vibrant, retro-inspired art bringing the '66 universe to life, this issue delivers a fun, stylish showdown where the heroes' surprise tactics turn the tide in their favor.
