This is a beautifully-illustrated, wonderfully-reprinted collection of some fun old comics with art by Neal Adams. Be warned, though, this edition does NOT contain any of the classic O'Neil/Adams Batman stories. Those start with Batman Illustrated by Neal Adams Vol. 2.
A fun book nonetheless, but not exactly what I thought I was buying.

For example, Batman drops an atom bomb on Superman as a joke, more or less... and Jimmy Olsen and Robin are shown laughing on the next island over, in the shadow of a mushroom cloud. Heh. Da good old days.

Outside of perhaps only Jack Kirby, there is no doubt in my mind that Neal Adams is the most influential comic book artist in the history of the genre.

Neal Adams is a genius and his Batman work from the late 60s is unmatched. But why did nobody stop the man 'update' his original artwork with cheesy new computer coloring? It's so bad, I can't read this, as much as I want to. The pencils & inks are dynamic, stylish and great as ever, but the new coloring makes everything look like a kiddie manga. This is so sad!
