Books read in 2021 #73 - “Tales of the Batman: Gerry Conway” by Gerry Conway & various artists.

This collection of 22 stories covering writer Gerry Conway’s tenure on various Batman titles from the mid 1970s to early 80s is a solid representation of the Batman with consistent characterization and a interesting take on his role in Gotham by questioning what it means to be a vigilante.

It is clear from these stories that Conway’s strength lay in the Gotham centric street level stories rather than the more fantasy aspects of the DC Universe.

Worth picking up as a primer on this period in Batman’s history. (
