An all-new series teams the Dark Knight with Scooby-Doo and the sleuths of Mystery, Inc.! When Batman discovers his original purple gloves have gone missing, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby-Doo travel back in time to Batman’s Year One to solve the case! Will this “Glove Story” have a happy ending?
I love Cohens writing on this issue. He simply copied and pasted the lingo that would have had been heard on one of those classic tv episodes. Now do not get me wrong, this was the chefs kiss with this issue. When I am reading a comic with two of my FAVORITE pop-cultural icons, I do not necessarily want the artists interpretation of what they should sound like (especially since he is pulling material from the past). Between Cohen and Brizuela, I could hear the laugh track and the sound effects of Scooby-Doo. I felt like I was reading one of the episodessans special guest star Don Knotts or Phyllis Diller!

This book is insanely fun. The whole time I was reading it, I kept feeling like that 8 year old kid sitting on the floor of my living room, popping my well loved copy Scooby-Doo Meets Batman into the DVD player for the 100th time. Scooby-Doo and Batman is one of those magical combinations that I don't think will ever get old, and I hope it makes people happy for generations to come. Now, I don't think anyone is going to be calling this high art (the cowards), but it doesn't need to be. It's a fun book meant for children, and it does its job fantastically. I loved this book, and I can't wait for the rest of the series. Read Full Review
Wit and whimsy suffuse every panel of this unlikely team-up comic. Read Full Review
The story also suggests Batman's experience meeting the gang led to the evolution of his costume and to growing the Bat-Family to including teenagers who he sees have a knack for solving crimes (and even inspires the addition of Scooby's hero Ace the Bat-Hound). Read Full Review

A pretty lame mystery. There wasn't even any bad guy to unmask. I do however like the references to the original Golden Age Batman portrayal. Too bad they didn't portray Alfred in his original chubbier dumpier self with no mustache and the obsession with becoming a detective.
Aside from the corniness of it all it wasn't so bad. Not very good either but I'm sure younger readers will like it and will also be surprised when they learn Batman did in fact start out like in here, and did wear purple gloves.
Out of all the mysteries in Gotham, the gang is after Batman's missing gloves... that's kinda disappointing. But maybee it gets better, we just have to wait and see.
