The issues written and drawn by Frank Robbins are my favorites, especially the issue of Detective Comics where Batman plays Russian Roulette.

My runner up is the Bob Haney issues of Brave and the Bold, particularly those drawn by Jim Aparo. The Nick Cardy issues are nice too.

Does anyone have any rec's on the best storys from Legend of the Dark Knight?

I downloaded the whole damn thing not to long ago and its fairly daunting without knowing at least which arcs to avoid. I'd just read it all but I don't have alot of time for reading in general, sadly

The first like 32 issues or thereabouts are just pure gold

Gothic, Prey, Shaman are all god tier

After the initial three years it gets samey and then gets taken over by event bullshit

Archie Goodwin's tenure on Detective Comics. Includes art by Alex Toth and Jim Aparo plus the Manhunter backups by Walt Simonson that lead to the awesome final issue drawn by Simonson where Batman and Manhunter team up.

Detective was 100 pages per issue at the time so they also put a lot of reprints in each issue but there was a good selection of reprints. Stuff like Ditko's Creeper and Kirby's Newsboy Legion.

>>84204873

Speaking of Shaman, what the fuck happened to that new edition that was solicited for January?
>>
>>84202822

The best Dr. Strange run of all time next to Ditko's
