1st printing.By Michael Eury and Michael Kronenberg. Cover by Neal Adams. Introduction by Dennis O'Neil.Batman. Is he the campy Caped Crusader? Or the grim Gotham Guardian? Both, as The Batcave Companion reveals.On the brink of cancellation in 1963, Batman was rescued by DC Comics editor Julius Schwartz, who, abetted by several talented writers and artists, gave the hero a much-needed "New Look" which soon catapulted Batman to multimedia stardom. In the next decade, when Batman required another fresh start, Schwartz once again led a team of creators that returned the hero to his "creature of the night" roots.Writers Michael Eury and Michael Kronenberg unearth the stories behind the stories of both Batman's "New Look" and Bronze Age (1970's) comic-book eras through incisive essays, invaluable issue-by-issue indexes, and insightful commentary from many of the visionaries responsible for and inspired by Batman's 1960's and 1970's adventures: Neal Adams, Michael Allred, Terry Austin, Mike W. Barr, Steve Englehart, Mike Friedrich, Mike Grell, Carmine Infantino, Joe Giella, Adam Hughes, Sheldon Moldoff, Will Murray, Dennis O'Neil, Bob Rozakis, Mark Waid, Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson.
