Written by Marc Tyler Nobleman. Art and cover by Ty Templeton.

Every Batman story is marked with the words "Batman created by Bob Kane." But that isn't the whole truth.

A struggling writer named Bill Finger was involved from the beginning. Bill helped invent Batman, from concept to costume to character. He dreamed up Batman's haunting origins and his colorful nemeses. Despite his brilliance, Bill worked in obscurity. It was only after his death that fans went to bat for Bill, calling for acknowledgment that he was the co-creator of Batman.

Based on original research, Bill the Boy Wonder is the first-ever book about the unsung man behind the Dark Knight.

Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 48 pages, Text (with full color illustrations and photos).

NOTE: "This is an absolute must read for any comic book fan, writer, and artist. Afterwards, seek out the documentary Batman and Bill. Here, the heartbreaking story of Bill Finger finally gets a much deserved happy ending." - Odinson, mycomicshop.com Archivist

By Michael E. Uslan.

When he was 8, Michael Uslan fell in love with Batman. He watched unhappily as the dark, serious superhero he knew and loved was turned into a campy goofball in the '60s TV show starring Adam West, and in 1979 he purchased the film rights to Batman. After ten years of desperately pitching a film that no one wanted, he sold and then produced Tim Burton's critically acclaimed and phenomenally popular Batman.

Having produced every Batman film to date, Uslan recounts his story here, in a memoir that will draw in all the boys and girls (of all ages) throughout the world who love Batman.

Welcome to a world of endless possibilities… In 1989, Brian Augustyn, Mike Mignola, P. Craig Russell, David Hornung, and John Workman created comics history with GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT, an alternative-history tale that featured a novice Dark Knight investigating a series of murders in Victorian-era Gotham committed by Jack the Ripper. The success of this one-shot led to the creation of the Esleworlds imprint, which gave writers and artists the freedom to reinterpret the Caped Crusaders origin and adventures throughout different time periods or realities. What would happen if Batman became a literal creature of the night, a Western adventurer, or a high-seas swashbuckler? These questions – and more – are answered in these pages.

1st printing. By Alex M. Wainer. This is a book about the comics genre and language, how these were used to create Batman, and how that character's longevity is largely due to the medium's unique formal qualities. It argues that Batman's core appeal is his mythic nature which allows him to transcend changes in reader tastes, the vicissitudes of the comics industry, and the changing media landscape. It is a study of how the formal aspects of comics are able to evoke uniquely mythic qualities that have made Batman such a long-lived cultural phenomenon. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 208 pages, Text.

Krazy Little Comics (1967 Topps): Badman is one of sixteen parody mini-comics originally produced as test market items in 1967, by the Topps Chewing Gum Company. They did not see full national distribution. All were written by Roy Thomas and feature Wally Wood cover and interior art. These minis spoof not only Marvel and DC super-heroes, but other comic characters as well, like the Phantom, Prince Valiant, and Tarzan. These possibly predate, or are at least contemporaneous with, Not Brand Ecch! #1 (08/1967), and are among the rarest of the Merry Marvel Marching Society era items. Full color, 2.5-in. x 3.5-in., no cover price, 8 pages.
