I did a little research and found there’s a Golden Age Bull’s-Eye who fought Green Arrow. And boy howdy, he’s a doozy!

I think my confusion stems from the very late date of Batman #139, which is way past the date where Mike’s Amazing World designates the break between Earth-1 and Earth-2. Mike’s Amazing World doesn’t consider Bull’s-Eye in the old Green Arrow stories to be the same guy as Bull’s-Eye who convinces Signalman to attack Batman with trick arrows. (Which, the more I think of it, comes off as more of a cruel super-villain prank than a serious suggestion. I hope the other Batman villains don’t hear of this. They hate Signalman ... but they stick together! They won’t rest until this attack on the Gotham Rogues Gallery is avenged.)

I’m pretty tired and I’m just about to go to bed early. I decided to read one great classic Batman story and take a shower and go to bed. Something awesome. Something I haven’t read for a while.

I decided to read The Gorilla Boss of Gotham City by David V Reed and Lew Sayre Schwartz.

GCD credits Bob Kane with pencilling the Barman and Robin figures on that story and others Schwartz worked on around that time - do you know if that's correct?

I feel like I've already blabbed a lot about my history with Batman on other threads before I found this one...

My first issue of in-continuity Batman was #436, the first part of Year Three by Wolfman/Broderick. (It wasn't until several weeks later that I realized there was a second Batman series called Detective Comics and bought #604, the first part of "The Mud Pack" by Grant/Breyfogle.) I was still figuring out the language of comics and honestly felt like I was barely holding on when I read that first issue, but as I started to pick up any comic I could get my hands on with Batman on the cover, a story began to unfold.

Resurrecting a topic from the first post: The first TPB I ever bought was "Death in the Family" for a whopping $5. I'd been just a few months too late to the party to vote one way or the other on Jason Todd's survival, but I remember thinking that while I didn't necessarily want him to die in the story, it seemed impossible that he could survive that explosion, especially after the brutal beating he took from the Joker, so I probably would have voted to kill him just so the story would make sense. I've always wondered how many other kids thought that way and voted with their head instead of their heart and killed off poor Jason Todd? You made it impossible, Starlin! Impossible!

Anyway, I liked Jason Todd... not half as much as Dick Grayson/Nightwing, true, but I liked his revamped origin (it actually ticked me off a bit when Scott Lobdell changed Todd's origin again in the New 52). The savvy street kid who stole the hubcaps off the Batmobile! How cool was that?? I thought it was an interesting change in the dynamic of Batman and Robin to see him in more of a reformatory role with the hot-tempered and very independent Jason, though it's maybe for the best that the arc came to a natural conclusion in the short term and led to the more traditional Tim Drake in the long term. This was the era when Robin really got cemented as a legacy character and each Robin was heavily branded with a unique personality. I loved all that stuff.

Some other early standout Bat-memories:
--The fold-out posters in the first and last issues of the "Mud Pack" story! They were both on my wall for the longest time.
--Dark Knight, Dark City. This was an early standout story for me.
--Legends of the Dark Knight! This series started up not too long after I got into comics. I remember a pretty weak attempt at boosting sales on the first issue with alternate-colored covers (maybe it worked, I just remember thinking I couldn't care less about having all the different colors). That series was right up my alley, but I eventually had to drop it after the price tag went up from $1.50 to $1.75. Who the hell do these guy think I am, Scrooge McMoneyBags??
--A 3-D OGN (I think by Joe Kubert?), complete with Bat-3-D glasses! There's still a picture of me as a kid reading that issue with the glasses on. I don't even remember what that book was called now, but it was pretty cool at the time.

I have this coverless copy of Worlds Finest one twenty three that I pull out and read every once in a while because it’s so nuts. It’s the second meeting of Bat Mite and Mr Mxyzptlk and it’s about what you’d expect.

Except for the Crime Rocket.

It’s a gang of thieves who land the rocket near their target and loot the place. In this case they rob the payroll of a factory that makes ships. And the factory is in the shape of a ship because stupid Gotham.

And they take off and escape.

They’re awesome.

Dear DC

Bring back the Crime Rocket.

We need to give that idea to Kurt Busiek. He'd find some way to link it to Roxy Rocket.
