About this Collection

This third volume in DC's Showcase Presents series reprints classic Batman team-up stories from The Brave and the Bold in black-and-white. Collecting issues from the late 1970s and early 1980s, it features the Dark Knight partnering with a rotating cast of DC heroes, including the Flash, Green Lantern, and the Atom, in standalone adventures written by Bob Haney and others. The oversized, budget-friendly format highlights the dynamic art of Jim Aparo, who defined the series' look during this era.
