reddit.comI am jealous of this shelf.
Also, have you read *Legends of the Dark Knight : Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez? Is it worth getting?

I have! As long as you go in understanding that it's focused on his work and it's not going to provide a cohesive narrative, for the most part, it's very enjoyable to flip through. The highlights for me in the book are Batman Confidential 26-28 and Batman: Reign of Terror #1, which are complete stories.
Overall, I enjoy collecting the Legends of the Dark Knight hardcovers, but I much prefer their sister hardcovers, Tales of the Batman. Those are typically writer focused and, therefore, contain more complete narratives.

This is a damn good collection! A lot of classics and hard to find books in there. Always love seeing Man of Steel and the Caped Crusader/Dark Knight Detective volumes - especially since the Batman ones are so hard to find (I got them all now but had to do a lot of searching)! Might have to look for the Tales of Batman hardcovers myself!

In lieu of Bronze Age Batman omnibuses, the Tales of the Batman books are awfully great and cover a ton of ground. The Wein, Wolfman, Englehart, and Conway books are definitely worth it.

That's awesome and that era of Batman is just what I'm looking to read more of right now! Thanks a lot!

Wow, thats a great collection! Some of those have been oop for a long time and sell for a lot in ebay.
Thank you! I've been collecting DC collections since 2008, so I've been fortunate to be able to buy and hold on to a lot of my collection.
