My opinion would be biased as I'm completely BAT-ty.

 

This book, BATMAN 232, rates as the greatest Bronze Age book.

It re-tells the origin of Batman and Robin.

The artwork is completely by Neal Adams, his best run was on this book and in GL, in my opinion.

It is the 1st appearance of Ra's Al Ghul who, again IMO, is Batman's greatest villain (not the Joker but Batman #251 is a close 2nd).

This book began the saga of Ra's/Talia/Damion that continues through the Bat-Titles to this day.

It also pulled Batman out of that campy era everyone (okay, me) detested from the Silver Age...it brought him back as the Dark Knight Detective.
