First of all, if you have the book "The Greatest Batman Stories Ever Told," then you already have two of the ten stories told here. That may deter you from buying the book because they are two of the better stories in here. Also if you have "Tales of the Demon," there is one of those stories in here. However, this is an anthology that stands on its own in terms of interest. I believe that the 70's was a crucial turning point in Batman history that marked a bit of a Renaissance.

The 70's was a good read for batman.
The only thing is,this book was smaller than
the rest.They could have put at least 4 to 5 more
stories in it.I read this book in one
shot. I love the art and the stories,
but they could of added more to this
thin book.

The 70's was a great time for Batman. In this collection we get some really good Batman stories where he takes on super villains like Joker,Manbat and Ras Al Ghul. Robin is seen alot too and so is Batgirl. Look for the really beautiful villain pin-up that features Joker,Penguin,Riddler,Catwoman,Two Face,Scarecrow and Ras Al Ghul,it is stunning. There is also a pin-up of Robin and Batgirl too and one in the end of the book with Batman,Robin,Batgirl,Alfred and Commissioner Gordon in the batcave.

I think all the stories in this book are great, but they really should have included more Ras Al Ghoul stories, because this guy is super interesting and he even gives the Joker a run for his money as Batman's number one nemesis. As fun and goofy as the 1950s and 1960s Batmans stories were, returning the Batman to his detective roots was long overdue. The fact that DC went that extra mile and included the super dark elements (including Joker's homicidal ways) of the Bob Kane and Bill Finger period ... Read More

With the possible exception of the original tales of the forties, or Frank Miller's work on the character, the seventies were the definitive era for Batman stories. This collection gives a nice overview of Batman's greatest era. I would have rated it higher, but for the ommission of the Engelhart/Rogers run In Detective Comics.
