"Fourteen All-New Adventures of the Caped Crusader"
Well, new thirty years ago! :-)
Joe Lansdale’s “Subway Jack” featuring the God of the Razor is far and away the best story in this collection! GOTR is one of my favorite "bad guys" and I loved reading another story about "him"!
I also enjoyed "Idol" by Ed Gorman. Two authors I like, Isaac Asimov and Max Allan Collins, have stories in here, but I didn't like them. The other ten are a mixed bag of good, ok, and not so good.
For me, I think I prefer Batman in comic form. I definitely missed the artwork. But this was an interesting aside, and Lansdale's story made it well worth it!

It's a nice mixture of story telling styles and "eras" of Batman. One of my favorites in the group is the first story in the book as it thinks through all the work Bruce Wayne must go through to keep his separate identities apart.
