Saturday Morning Batman: Detective Comics #37

Wow, you don't read one of these Golden Age Batman's for awhile and suddenly the poor writing is hard to follow.

Overview: The essentials of this plot is that Batman saves a boat from being destroyed by a foreign agent. That's really all there is to that story. Batman saves a man from some mobsters who ends up turning on him because he's a sort of double agent. Then Batman foils a plot and the head Mobster Turg ends up being a Count.

Final Thoughts: This was not a good issue. Sometimes you get a story that you can follow and draw entertainment out of even bad writing. This issue was not that. This was just a rough read. The story didn't spend more than a few panels on any particular scene and the setup was just kind of silly.

I'm looking forward to the next issue as that introduces Robin into the series and then we can get into the regular Batman title.

Overall I give this book an F.
