Set Description:
Poison Ivy Double Cover! Cowls of days gone by, a simpler yet more hectic time, where things are in motion to bring us to the future! Looking back, we reminisce and laugh to keep our heads, now we can know where we've been as seen in these classic covers of hilarity! How could we not chuckle a bit in retrospect? These issues give a glimpse, and for the big picture. Keep on collecting! The time and past will catch up to you, if you let it. These page turners, make sure that you do not regret it!
Adam West will forever be a "BATS" to remember, not soon to forget, and timely as ever!
Without Faith it is impossible to please, so if you can't please everyone, well, please the one above that calls for the spirit of Truth to move in hearts toward a justice, which is sometimes "just us" but made possible. It isn't always a Dark Knight but is also a whimsical intelligence that encourages those of any city or village to take heart and overcome the world. It is as it comes that none are able to vehemently oppose all the time at every possible second in actions, but there are those in existence that do hate evil, and that calls for a Batman and by some way a Robin. The courage of a student to surpass the teacher, as the law is a hard taskmaster to where none can stand, save justice in mercy by way of one like Batman in DC who has kept his scruples unto morals and takes action to save rather than destroy.

2nd Poison Ivy. DOUBLE COVER: Outer 4.0 Inner 7.0 Label 7.0. A Half Price Books find that I had a coupon for, it came back higher grade than expected and Universal Blue Label to BOOT! Another where the stars align, and I end up with a double cover of the 2nd appearance of IVY! I believe this cover shows the simplicity of Batman and the current humor of the times. I would definitely have bought this off the stands back then. It is interesting to see the Boy Wonder being serious and he is the KID! Batman get off your duff! It also takes days of relaxation, if the criminals indeed ever take a day off in Gotham. Gotham is a city based off New York, I'd assume, seemingly parodied throughout the DC/Marvel universes, and can let others take aim at a city that never sleeps in their writing. Keeping it piggy backed off of the reality, sometimes the fiction seems more relatable.
Complete with a back cover picture of what this cover also reminds me of the most, the Batman movie starring Adam West and Burt Ward as Batman and Robin! Brought over from television, as well, and the TV show version started the same year as this issue!
