The Brave and the Bold was a DC Comics Silver Age comic book series that ran from 1955 to 1983. It is best known for its incarnation as a superhero team-up comic, in which various DC superheroes joined forces with each other (but mostly with Batman) to fight menaces too big to face alone.The original concept for The Brave and the Bold was an Anthology Comic of historical adventure stories, featuring the likes of Robin Hood, the Viking Prince, and the Silent Knight. From issue #25 it became a try-out title for new potential series, beginning with the debut of the original (pre-Amanda Waller) Suicide Squad, and going on to introduce the Justice League of America, Cave Carson, the Silver Age Hawkman and Hawkgirl, and "Strange Sports Stories", all of which went on to achieve at least occasional recurring status.note Even Strange Sports Stories, which was a short-lived anthology series in the 1970s.It became a team-up comic with issue #50, which featured an alliance between Green Arrow and the Martian Manhunter. (Although with occasional lapses back into being a try-out title, such as #57, the debut of Metamorpho.) Issue #54 featured a team-up between Robin, Kid Flash and Aqualad, which led a few issues later to the formation of the Teen Titans. Batman appeared in the title for the first time in #59, teaming up with Green Lantern, and from #67 on, he was in every single issue. The series ended with its 200th issue, a double-sized special featuring a team-up between Batman and ... Batman.The tone of the team-up stories could vary considerably. Some were straightforward Batman stories (you wouldn't think a crossover between Batman and House of Mystery would work, but in #93 Denny O'Neil made it), but many, to put it bluntly, carried the torch for the kind of Silver Age wackiness that made Superdickery what it is today, into the Bronze Age. (Exhibit A: #108, in which Batman accidentally sells his soul to the Devil to save a child, then teams up with Sergeant Rocknote  With absolutely no explanation of why Rock is still a young-ish man in 1973 who reveals the "Devil" is actually Hitler! But also actually the Devil!). Most of these (and the majority of the series, in fact) were written by "Zaney" Bob Haney, the man so famous for his cheeky defiance for continuity, common sense and logic that even his editors once claimed his stories might take place in their own alternate universe, "Earth-B(ob)". Needless to say, Haney's stories have developed their own fans, not hindered by the fact that he worked with Neal Adams and Jim Aparo doing career-best work.A limited series titled The Brave and the Bold, by Mike Grell and Mike Baron, ran from 1991 to 1992 and teamed up Green Arrow, The Question, and creator-owned character The Butcher. A new The Brave and the Bold ongoing ran from 2007 to 2010, which removed Batman's ex officio status and returned to being a series where any combination of heroes could team up. The spirit of the Silver/Bronze Age Bob Haney original is arguably better carried on and very faithfully adapted by the animated series Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

Cernunnos: Cernunnos makes a prominent appearance in The Brave and the Bold: Batman and Wonder Woman. He's a large, bearded and horned humanoid, who resides in Tir Na Nóg along with his fellow Celtic deities. He attempts to keep peace between the two factions of gods, the Fomorians and the Tuatha dé Danann, but when his efforts fall on deaf ears he turns to Diana and Batman for help and, later, to help uncover the murderer of the Formorian king Elatha. While he's killed during the crossfire between the two sides, the story ends with him being reborn as a horned child.

No Guy Wants an Amazon: Issue #63 (from 1965) revolves around this trope. Basically, Wonder Woman and Supergirl both get new boyfriends that don't approve of what they do and would be disillusioned if they saw them at work. This leads the two to bend over backwards trying to save lives without losing their boyfriends by lying to them about their actions. Finally, they give it up and return to fighting crime, as they realize that it is what they need to do.

It's All My Fault: In #27, Robbie Reed uses the H-Dial and takes on an identity with precognitive abilities. He sees something terrifying, which is revealed at the end to have been the death of the next person to use the dial. He tells Batman he left the dial in his hotel room because he was scared of potentially dying, and now feels horrible that someone else did. Batman reminds Robbie that he's still a child who shouldn't have to fear dying for any reason.

Weird Crossover: Bob Haney had a fondness for teaming Batman up with various incongruous characters, often from different genres entirely. His favourite guest to bring in was undeniably Sgt. Rock, a trigger-happy military hero from World War II who really has no business being in a superhero book, not least one co-starring Batman.

Once More, with Clarity: Issue #34 focuses on the Legion of Super-Heroes (specifically its founders) teaming up with the Doom Patrol to stop a black hole from destroying Earth in the 30th Century. Issue #35 features the Legion of Substitute-Heroes teaming up with the Inferior Five to try and stop the black hole before the Legionnaires do. #35 reveals several confusing moments in the previous issue were the result of the Subs running around in the background, and that they were the ones responsible for the black hole initially destroying Earth in the first place.

Clear My Name: Played with in #59, as Time Commander claims he escaped jail to prove he was convicted in his civilian identity of a crime he did not commit, going so far as to claim he's "a modern Edmond Dantes." He steadily maintains his desire to be cleared of that crime throughout the story, but we never learn if he was actually innocent. His crimes as the Time Commander that didn't have anything to do with clearing his name render it a moot point.

Mind Screw: The series as a whole could occasionally fall into this territory, owing to the laissez-faire writing style of Bob Haney. Ignoring Haney's usual disregard for continuity, many of his Brave and the Bold stories could just be plain weird, even by Silver/Bronze Age standards. The page image at the top? That comic cover is not merely a fake-out to draw attention like something out of Superdickery; the terrorist villains actually jump through the fourth wall to threaten the artist into killing off Batman in the story itself. No, they never explain how that works, just roll with it.

Continuity Snarl
 The Brave and the Bold (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b
comment
Continuity Snarl: All the damn time, to the point that some issues are considered to be set in a tongue-in-cheek alternate continuity, nicknamed "Earth-B" after writer Bob Haney. The above example of Sgt. Rock (a military hero from World War II) teaming up with Batman in the modern day to fight Satan/Hitler is merely the tip of the iceberg. Some stories don't blatantly defile continuity, but still have pretty implausible premises, such as Kamandi (the last surviving human from a post-apocalyptic future) somehow arriving in present day Earth and getting mind-controlled by Gotham mob bosses, or Catwoman inexplicably murdering people even though she has a Thou Shalt Not Kill rule of her own. There's also a story where Batman gets possessed by a demonic spirit and it's revealed that his parents dabbled in occult magic; suffice to say, that little nugget has never come up again.

Bad Guy Bar: In The Lords of Luck, Supergirl needs to hire Lobo to take her to Rann, and her "guide" insists on stopping by every seedy bar he knows along the way.

Not That There's Anything Wrong with That

Not That There's Anything Wrong with That: In #34, Lightning Lad finds a ball of pink fluff stuck in the machinery running the Time Bubble (which is revealed in the next issue to be from Dumb Bunny's costume). It's initially assumed the fluff belongs to Cosmic Boy since his costume's pink. When he vehemently denies it's his fluff, Lightning Lad and Saturn Girl assure him that if it was his fluff they'd be okay with it.

Dumbass Has a Point: After hours of trying to explain how to deal with a black hole, it's Dumb Bunny who figures out they need to "put it on a diet," as in, make it use more energy than it absorbs.

I Always Wanted to Say That: In issue #191, when Batman and the Joker turn the real villain (the Penguin) over to the police, the Joker says "Let's take him downtown and book him!" Then he turns to Batman and says "Gee...I always wanted to say that!"

Superdickery: Many instances, including the particularly unusual version in the page picture, where the villain threatens the artist to make him draw Rock shooting Batman, and thus, kill him.
