Already posted these on the bronze thread's philippine variants. I just found this thread. I'd post more as I edit the other pics.

Are you bummed or did you buy it knowing it was going to be a modern reprint? (shrug)

 

I've always loved that cover.

 

I was aware it was a modern reprint. But I was missing it for my set. Not so easy to find.

 

Okay. I wasn't sure. In that case, congratulations! Like I said, lovely cover.

 

Not sure why I was assuming the worst here ... :sorry:

Last but not least, a forum member just posted on the italian comics forum I belong to the very first actual Batman italian edition, published very likely without permission, in 1945. I had a few (non Batman) issues of this series which I gave to SACentaur (Steve) and RyanH. Publishes a traced (redrawn) version of Detective #29. This is 8 pages and pocket sized, a really poor publication.

 

These are VERY rare.

Hey guys!

 

I got a present from Tony (Solarcadet) today, I posted them in the TWIYCollection thread.

 

Just wanted to share an add that was in Tarantella #2's front cover.
