When the next generation of metahuman crime-fighters causes a devastating accident resulting in mass civilian casualties, a disillusioned Superman is coaxed out of retirement by Wonder Woman to reform the Justice League. But while the Man of Tomorrow believes that his actions will help avert further destruction, his return puts events into motion that may, in fact, cause the apocalypse. Is the future set in stone, or can the Justice League perform a final courageous act to save the world from itself?

The late ’60s marked the height of Batmania, when fans of the television series and the comic books couldn’t get enough of the Caped Crusader. His appearances on covers meant higher sales, so it was decreed that Batman would take up permanent residence in The Brave and the Bold. His courage was never questioned, and he fearlessly teamed up with the most daring partners from across the DC Universe at a time when such crossovers were rare.
These groundbreaking stories featured some of Batman’s greatest team-ups with such legendary characters as Wonder Woman, Flash, Deadman, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, the Teen Titans, and others, all by some of the foremost comics talent of the Bronze Age—Neal Adams, Jim Aparo, Bob Haney, Dick Giordano, and Dennis O’Neil, to name a few.
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 1 collects the first stories of Batman’s epic run on the series—The Brave and the Bold #74-106—and includes a foreword by Robert Greenberger.
