Years of Batman hardcover overseen by former DC publisher/writer Paul Levitz
will include several rare and unpublished comic shorts from Batman's history,
including a Levitz/Denys Cowan story and the original layouts from Detective
Comics #200 by Lew Sayre Schwartz and Bob Kane. The book will include essays
about Detective Comics and Batman by Cory Doctorow, Neil Gaiman, Glen David
