Batman: The Golden Age Omnibus Vol. 3
Part of the DC Omnibus guide — every release, in reading order
Including the first appearance of Alfred Pennyworth! The Dynamic Duo is joined by their greatest ally in their war on crime, Bruce Wayne's butler, Alfred Pennyworth! From his very first appearance, the valiant valet proves he will be doing more than just cleaning cobwebs out of the Batcave as he adds valuable insight into cases and shows Batman and Robin that three is anything but a crowd.
And the Caped Crusader can use the help, as Gotham is terrorized by familiar villains The Joker, the Penguin, Two-Face, and Catwoman, while a slew of new villains, such as the Cavalier and the Crime Surgeon, make their debut. All this, plus Batman and Robin must battle threats from the underwater world of Atlantis and the far-future world of the 21st century!
