    Does anybody remember this awesome 3 part mini series from the early 80's? I had it as a kid and read it a thousand times atleast. I recently got a set off ebay and I can't wait for them to arrive. Does anyone remember this series or have any other fond memories of it?

    Yup. Good read. I actually have "ashcan" sized copies of all 3 issues. They were (I believe) a mail-in cereal promotion in the 80's.

    Yeah, I had the small ones too. Good stuff indeed! If I remember correctly it show a few of batman's forgotten 70's and 80's villans like killer moth,tweedledee and dum, and a few other oddballs. For some reason I remember that.

    I think I still have my copy of that. First Batman comic I ever read. I really should read it again now that I've read more Batman stuff.

    I believe I still have the old cereal promotion copies. I'd have to look for them though.

    Is that the story where it turns out that the guy trying to kill Batman is actually Bruce Wayne?
