Description
Published 1983
Smell of Brimstone, Stench of Death
written by Mike W. Barr

In a flashback tale, the 1950's Batman and Robin face off against Brimstone.
Drawn by Dave in the 50's style.

I don't collect Batman art but I recall reading the Batman reprints in the batman annuals and this page reminded me of those tales.
I purchased this page from the late Kevin Brogan many years ago.
So on New Year's Eve, I feel it's only fitting to post this page and raise a glass for my old friend.

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you'll buy your pint cup!
and surely I'll buy mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

Don't look so sad,
It's got the Brave and Bold.
It's just another fight,
That's all it is, last not the first,

It's not the worst duo,
We've come through as the best,
We'll get through Bats.
We've made mistakes,

But we've made good friends too.
Remember all the fights we spent with them?
And artwork fans,
Who says Bob Kane comes true?

Tonight's another chance for art again.
It's just a Mephistopholes,
Another light like all the rest.
It's just another New Year's Eve,

Let's make it the best.
It's just another New Year's Eve,
It's just another Robin time,
But when we're through this New Year

You'll see, will be
Just fire.

Ah, I always wondered where this one went to! A wonderful splash page featuring Gibbons doing a great job giving it a 1950's feel, yet still allowing his own style to show through. Raise a glass for Kevin Brogan!
