Wow, that's spectacular! I loved this cover from the moment I saw it. I would have thought that this would be in Albert's vault. It belongs in a museum, or a Gallery, preferably mine. Congrats on owning such a memorable cover.

This is impressive.  Mr. Freeze has followed me from a Nor'easter to a snow storm in Colorado.  This work goes beyond the typical one figure illustrations to a masterpiece of expression,  detail, composition and use of solid black to highlight facial expression.   This is Bruce Timm at the heights of his skills and mastery of the medium.   Congratulations on getting a seminal piece.

Oh, the weather in Gotham's frightful / Mr. Freeze ain't so delightful / Batgirl's got no place to gooooooo / Batman... smells, Batman smells, Batman smeeeells

Okay, I should probably work on that one a bit more. Anyway, Merry classic Batman cover!

I'm not one for "giant headshot" covers, but in this case I'd make an exception. The emotion, the tension, the conflict, the quiet energy of the falling snow.... there's some masterful storytelling woven in to this "giant headshot"

I'm a HUGE fan of Bruce Timm. That being said, I've always loved this cover. It still knocks me out when I stumble across the actual art from something so memorable to me. Congrats on this amazing score! I don't know how you did it, but "BRAVO"!

I've seen the thumbnail many times but I never clicked on it.  It's my own lecherous fault.  I'm usually just looking for naked girls with small boobies and pointy nipples when I'm in the mood for some Timm.  Glad I finally clicked.  I finally see Batman and Catwoman!  Luv that integration!

It's Batgirl, but I don't blame you not knowing the costumes if you're used to the nude Timmies.

Shucks!  I missed that bat on her chest!  Also... my dirty secret is 15 years lovingly collecting comic art and I've still read less than 100 comics in my life.
