☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis new edition of the first Bronze Age omnibus collects Batman's early team-up adventures from The Brave and the Bold, featuring the Dark Knight partnering with a wide array of DC heroes during the 1970s. The volume reprints issues from the series' run where Batman became the regular co-star, showcasing stories written primarily by Bob Haney with art by Jim Aparo and others. It's a comprehensive look at a pivotal era that helped define the character's place in the broader DC Universe through dynamic, standalone team-ups.
"Rampant Run the Robots" kicks off a fresh chapter in Batman’s legacy with a compelling new dynamic: Bruce Wayne now has a ward, Lance Bruner, brought into his life through a promise made by Bruce’s father. As Dick and the Titans step in to guide Lance, tensions rise when the boy discovers the truth behind Batman and Robin—setting off a collision course between loyalty, identity, and the price of secrets. Written by Bob Haney and brought to life with powerful art by Neal Adams, this 2018 story pulses with emotional stakes and the unmistakable energy of the Bronze Age, all framed by Karl Kerschl’s striking cover.
In "The Sleepwalker from the Sea!", Aquaman drifts through a haze of guilt and confusion, his mind clouded as he unwittingly aids Ocean Master in a scheme to plunder and destroy a Gotham seaside development—his own powers turned against him, his will eroded by forces beneath the waves.
In "Punish Not My Evil Son," Bruce Wayne takes in Lance Bruner, a troubled teen bound to him by a promise his father made. As Dick and the Titans try to guide Lance toward change, he grows increasingly defiant—until he discovers the truth about Bruce and Dick’s secret identities, setting off a dangerous game of trust and deception.
In "The Senator's Been Shot!" from Batman in the Brave and the Bold: The Bronze Age #1, Batman and Green Arrow face off against the menacing Miklos Minotaur in their civilian identities, forcing them to confront whether their lives as heroes are truly making a difference. The story explores the weight of their choices and the cost of wearing the mantle, as they question if stepping away might be the greater act of service.
