Very cool to see other's digging those as well. I remember that Wolfman/Breyfogle run really well, as they did the Joker, the Riddler, and then Scarecrow right in a row, and introduced the new Robin. Very fond memories there, and what hooked me on Batman ever since. I was probably 12 when those came out, and loved the heck out of them, and read them over and over. Jake

I agree...I had a subscription to Batman back then. I loved that run. THe best part about the Joker in 450 and 451 is that you saw him act as though it was his responsibility to act the way he does, that he had to do it...and seeing someone else try and take his place...
