About this Collection

This 1986 annual collects a year's worth of Batman stories originally published in the UK, featuring the Dark Knight battling classic rogues like the Joker and the Penguin in standalone adventures tailored for a British audience. The volume includes contributions from notable creators of the era, offering a mix of action and detective work that defined the character's Bronze Age era. It's a snapshot of Batman's international appeal during the mid-1980s, presented in the larger annual format typical of UK comic releases.

In "A Vow from the Grave!", Batman teams up with Green Lantern in a high-stakes mission to stop Tri Vul, whose desperate attempt to cure his radiation poisoning with a meteor beneath Gotham City triggers devastating earthquakes. Written by Bob Haney and Mike W. Barr, with dynamic art by Jim Aparo—pencils, inks, and lettering—this 1986 annual blends sci-fi intrigue with Gotham’s signature tension, while Jerry Serpe’s colors and Bryan Talbot’s cover add depth to the tale.
