Batman: The Gotham Adventures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

By Ty Templeton<\/strong>, Rick Burchett<\/strong> & John Beatty<\/strong> (DC Comics)
\nISBN: 978-1-56389-616-3<\/p>\n

The Batman Animated<\/strong> TV series masterminded by Bruce Timm and Paul Dini revolutionised the Dark Knight and led to some of the absolute best comic book adventures in his nigh seventy-year publishing history. The miniseries collected here features the entire Batman Family in adventures set directly following the Batman Adventures: the Lost Years<\/strong> miniseries.<\/p>\n

‘With a Price on his Head’<\/em> is an unforgettable yarn as a millionaire victim puts an open bounty on the Joker, and Batman’s protective custody plan goes horribly wrong. With the Clown Prince loose in the Batcave and the team hunting down assorted opportunistic super-criminals only Alfred and Batgirl can save the day.<\/p>\n

Two-Face commandeers a live game-show in a powerful and stylish tale of parenting entitled ‘Lucky Day’<\/em> whilst Batman is saved by his ultimate hero the Grey Ghost in ‘Just Another Day’<\/em>, a charming shocker featuring the Scarecrow.<\/p>\n

Catwoman deals savagely with a millionaire-model who enjoys animal-testing in the hard-hitting ‘Claws’ <\/em>and the tragic Mister Freeze returns in ‘Polar Opposites’<\/em> before the magic concludes with ‘Last Chance’<\/em> as Nightwing returns to his circus roots and meets the legendary ghost of Boston Brand \u00e2\u20ac\u201c better known to all comic fans as Deadman.<\/p>\n

Without ever diluting the power and mood of the character, these tales perfectly honed the grim hero and his team to a wholly accessible and memorable form that the youngest of readers can enjoy, whilst adding shades of exuberance and style that only the very rarest of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153real\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Batman comics have come near to achieving. This is Bat-Gold and every fan should own it.<\/p>\n
