Five StarsBy CustomerAwesome2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. of Two-FaceBy David SwanIf you're in the mood for a silly Batman the early 1940's should be right up your alley. You just cannot take any of these stories the least bit serious. In one absurd example Batman and are fighting a gang of thieves in the arctic. In order to attack the villains, Robin rolls down a hill collecting snow until he becomes an enormous human snowball plowing into the criminals. In another story a criminal attempts to escape in a plane prompting Robin to fire The Dark Knight at the plane using a huge cannon knowing full well if he misses he's dead. Batman snags the plane and pulls himself inside to battle the thief. Meanwhile a stuntman who's spent the whole story fearing for his life attempts to redeem himself by having Robin fly the Batplane above the plane Batman is on so that he can do a parachute free suicide dive at the plane. He misses but is saved when Batman reaches out and grabs the freefalling stuntman. The whole sequence is so divorced from reality it's hilarious but that's Batman of the 40's.This is the era when Batman would punctuate each punch with a bad pun and the criminals often leave clues so obvious that they would insult the modern day "World's Greatest Detective". In one story a crook drops a newspaper clipping indicating their next crime. In another, two thugs openly brag in public that they managed to capture The Batman only to have their conversation overheard by who just happens to be walking by at the moment. In fact Batman and Robin succeed as much from luck as skill. This has to be the wimpiest Batman of all time with fighting skills that seem about on par with say two decent fighters. Add a third and Batman's going down. Luckily for The Batman the villains consistently put the Dark Knight in easily escapable situations. In one story a villain bonks a sleeping Batman on the head and is told by his superiors to leave his unconscious body stranded in the Arctic rather than kill him because.... why??? This happens over and over again.My favorite insane criminal scheme was put together by The Penguin. He taught a parrot to memorize safe combinations. The Penguins plan was predicated on someone with a safe full of valuables buying the parrot from him. Then the victim must keep the bird in the same room with the safe and the victim must recite the safe combination out loud for the bird to hear and finally the bird owner would need to call the Penguin to do a checkup of the parrot at which point the parrot will relay to him the safe combination. Astoundingly the plan works perfectly but The Penguin then goes ahead and just kills the man anyway before breaking into the safe.I happen to be a huge fan of the lighthearted stories of 1950's but these older stories don't really have the charm and wit of those later stories and the art is muddy and inconsistent. About the only aspect of these stories that stands out as a positive is the usage of Robin who is a very useful member of the team and rescues Batman on more than one occasion. The reason I pick these Chronicles up is because they are part of comic book history particularly the foundation of characters that have become world famous. In this volume we get the first two Two-Face stories (originally named Harvey Kent), three stories and a Penguin story. I'm going to give this book four stars NOT because the material here is four star material but because DC should be applauded rather than condemned for making these golden age stories available at a reasonable price.4 of 20 people found the following review helpful. Perfect way to see original Batman comicsBy Richard TuckermanThe "Cronicles" series of volumes, with stories in order and in color are a great low-cost way to collect the old DC characters' publications from the 30s, 40s, and 50s - future releases presumed.

The graphic novel series collecting every Batman adventure ever published in chronological order continues with this new, seventh volume featuring stories from the early 1940s!In this new volume, Batman and Robin battle foes including The Joker and The Penguin, and face Two-Face for the very first time!
