DC Bronze Age Read-through Project

A little side project of mine. I’m reading through several, but not all, of DC’s Superhero titles starting at the end of 1969 with plans to go all the way to the various reboots and restarts that kick off the Post-Crisis continuity in 1986. I’ll include covers, brief synopses, and some of my thoughts. I started this over on Facebook, but decided to move it all over here to make things easier to keep track of.
