UHH maybe only worth reading if you have mad nostalgia for Golden Age Batman. Or have to read Golden Age Batman for your comics class. Basically, kitschy and moderately entertaining but if it hadn't been for class I probably would have stopped after 30 pages or so. The storytelling just doesn't really hold up.
Please don't murder me, Batman fans.
