Hello and welcome to the World of Bats, the Batman Book Club.
Yesterday, we found out that Neal Adams, a comic book legend who made his mark on the Batman universe, passed away at the age of eighty. So, to celebrate his life and legacy, we’ll be looking at some of his biggest and influential stories, along with writer Denny O’Neil.
First appearance of Ra’s al Ghul in “Daughter of the Demon,” a retelling of Batman and Robin’s origins.

Reading will last from 2022-04-30T05:00:00Z→2022-05-06T05:00:00Z, but if you’re suffering through Lazarus Pit madness, you can always come back later.
Looking forward to reading these classics with you all and celebrating the work of Neal Adams.
