Then what do you know, on Wednesday I found out that DC just released Batman by Gene Colan Volume 1. The first issue reprinted is Batman #340, pictured above. I am strongly considering buying it strictly for nostalgic purposes.LChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00549099738504413408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4832452014047878084.post-76585446416031400822011-08-04T06:26:58.923-07:002011-08-04T06:26:58.923-07:00Oh, and to this day my lovely wife, who is neither...Oh, and to this day my lovely wife, who is neither conservative nor especially Christian, is amazed that Marvel was able to get away with having a character named Son of Satan.Matt Kishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854685960260054407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4832452014047878084.post-43610220342527232152011-08-04T06:26:03.309-07:002011-08-04T06:26:03.309-07:00You say "There’s nothing special about this c...You say "There’s nothing special about this comic..." but it was Gene Colan. That's kind of cool. My first comic was also sixty cents, and it was Uncanny X-Men #156, featuring the Starslammers by Dave Cockrum.
