Agreed that it is pretty, but this sucker is not for sale until I upgrade it.
Well, it's certainly prettier than my 9.2 (that printer's spot drives me crazy) and I paid about 20x more. Looks like I got back into the hobby about a year or two late.

These guys aren't too bad either. Missing just two.

Yeah, superpimp mentioned that one a couple of pages back. Seems to be the same person who just bought the 9.0. It'll interesting to see where this ends up.

No, I don't think Bats 227 is the 'key' Neal Adams book to have. While it has a truly classic cover, I'd much rather own many other great comics with 20 pages or more of Neal's art in them, rather than one with just an Adams cover surrounding an Irv Novick pencil job.
I agree, Bob, but resistance is futile with this book for whatever reason.
My vote for the true "key" Adams Batbook is #232.
How can you go wrong with Bats 232?
