This trade paperback collects sixteen Batman tales from the 50's. These stories reflect the lighthearted and carefree era in which they took place. With Robin, Batwoman, Bat-Mite, and Ace the Bat-Hound by his side, the world's greatest detective Batman faced off against a zany collection of foes that included giant fighting robots, kooky aliens and talking apes.
