Batman and Robin #1

/ / Comics

The Dynamic Duo launch into a new era with Batman and Robin #1 featuring a more lighthearted pairing that had me confused for several pages as to just who was wearing Robin’s mask.

The Brave and the Bold #166

Released on or around this date 46 years ago, Throwback Tuesday takes us back to The Brave and the Bold #166 which offered fans a team-up between Batman and Black Canary. When I say team-up, Batman carries the bulk of the issue here headed to Star City after dealing with a prison break in which the Penguin escaped and is out for revenge against those who sent him to prison. And he’s pretty successful as the villain kills several people before he’s apprehended.
