Batman in the Forties by Dick Sprang, Charles Paris, Bill Finger, Jerry Robinson, Bob Kane, Winslow Mortimer, George Roussos, Jack Schiff, Jack Burnley

4.0

I really enjoyed this one, even more than the 50s collection. There are some really good stories in here, even though parts obviously are hilarious when you read them today. Well, a lot of it is hilarious, and some parts are somewhat disturbing (spoiler alert: the SPANKING). The Batman's first appearance is in this one, naturally, as is the first Robin story, and the origin stories and whatnot. My favourite was the one where Bruce Wayne lost the guardianship of Dick (WOE!!), though. An interesting and fun read.
