Just picked this up, amongst a bunch of other comics, from the used bookstore! Haneyverse Goodness! Brave and the Bold #121, Sept. 1975- Written by Bob Haney, Art by Jim Aparo. I’m a big fan of these Brave and the Bold team-ups, and, oh man, the Metal Men!
First published in The Brave and the Bold #197 in 1983, “The Autobiography of Bruce Wayne” opens with an elderly Bruce recounting his origins as the Batman, the allies he had acquired over the years, and more importantly, the woman who would spend the next 20 years of his life beside him as his wife.
Just in time for the winter solstice, we simply couldn’t end Helena Wayne’s 40th anniversary celebration without discussing my favourite DC Comics holiday story of all time: the Huntress and Batman story featured in The Brave and the Bold #184 titled “The Batman’s Last Christmas.” Now, judging by the cover, it doesn’t look like Batman is having a holly jolly Christmas and the Huntress looks very concerned for him. But despite appearances, it is not really a story centred on manpain or Bruce Wayne’s usual brooding. Quite the opposite! It is instead a story about rediscovering the meaning of love, family, and friendship! Let’s get right to it.
