Inspired by the comic book series by Mike Mignola, Richard Pace and Troy Nixey, BATMAN: THE DOOM THAT CAME TO GOTHAM is a 1920s-based tale that finds explorer Bruce Wayne accidentally unleashing an ancient evil, expediting his return to Gotham City after a two-decade hiatus. The logic/science-driven Batman must battle Lovecraftian supernatural forces threatening the sheer existence of Gotham, along the way being aided and confronted by reimagined versions of his well-known allies and enemies, including Green Arrow, Ra’s al Ghul, Mr. Freeze, Killer Croc, Two-Face, James Gordon and Bruce’s beloved wards. Prepare for a mystical, often terrifying Batman adventure unlike any other.

Another Neal Adams' Batman Classic: "Robin Meets Man-Bat"
Here's another 1970s Batman story for Power Records illustrated by the late, great Neal Adams. I've interspersed Adams' original art pages (inked by the equally great [and late] Dick Giordano) as available.
Remembering Neal Adams: Batman and Robin Fight the Joker in "Stacked Cards"
Neal Adams, who was to many fans THE Batman artist, died last week at age 80, and tributes to him abound across the Web, as well they should.
We'll do a few of our own here in the coming days and what better way to start than with this gallery of mostly original art for Neal's Batman story for Power Records, "Stacked Cards," which features the Dynamic Duo squaring off agains the Joker.
Where the original pages aren't available I subbed in those from the printed edition. This is a beautiful example of Adams' dynamic visual storytelling and his ability to depict a Caped Crusader who was at once spooky, grim and heroic and, sometimes, even funny and lighthearted.
