What are the most memorable Batman stories from the '70s, basically 1969-1979, and what are the best Denny O'Neil Batman comics from that decade too?
Here's what I know already (not in order, I know):
Batman #217 - One Bullet Too Many
Detective Comics #457 - There is No Hope in Crime Alley
Detective Comics #483 - The Curse of Crime Alley (I listed this because I heard it was a great one but I'm not sure. Anyone on this?)
Detective Comics #395 - The Secret of the Waiting Graves (listed because I've seen that cover alot)
Detective Comics #400 - Challenge of the Man-Bat
Batman #251 - The Joker's Five-way Revenge
Detective Comics #475 & #476 - The Laughing Fish
Detective Comics #469-479 The Steve Englehart/Marshall Rogers run that is famous today. Also known as Dark Detective I thanks to its sequel.
Batman: Dark Detective (says to be the sequel to the #469-479 run)
Thats what I know (and what I have to save to remember, LOL). What else, and what that issue and story is, is there that should be on the list?
And where can I get these? I know theres Batman in the Seventies that has some of these and others that aren't on this list and there is also those Batman: Illustrated by Neal Adams Volumes (which for 35-50 bucks a piece must be good but it'll be a pain just to get those). On those Neal Adams Volumes, are those the actual, full issues?
But anyway what are the most memorable Batman stories both from the '70s and by Denny O'Neil?
