That '43 serial cover is really cool. I kinda wish that they had redone the covers to the other 4. Something to make them stand out as the special ones besides a boarder.
Oct. 18th will be a really expensive day for me. That is the day before the DC Direct Long Halloween figures are released (they'll probably be delayed though) That makes for a really expensive week.

Yea.. I was really hoping for new covers for the first 4, although the Titels are the same fonts..LOL
No cover for the box set yet, though I'd suspect that the price is 70 or so bucks.

From thedigitalbits.com:
Well... Warner's finally gone and done it. They've officially announced the DVD release of Batman Begins for 10/18, as we've been expecting. You'll be able to buy a single-disc regular edition (SRP $28.98) and a 2-disc Deluxe Edition (SRP $30.97). Each will include the film in anamorphic widescreen video (2.40:1), with English and French Dolby Digital 5.1 audio. We believe there will be a full frame version of the regular edition as well.
We don't have all the details yet, but we do know that the 2-disc Batman Begins: Deluxe Edition will feature 8 documentaries (including Genesis of the Bat: Batman Incarnations from the Mid-1980s to the Present, The Journey Begins: Creative Concepts, Story Development and Casting, Shaping Mind and Body: Fighting Style, Gotham City Rises: Production Design, Cape and Cowl: The New Batsuit, The Tumbler: The New Batmobile, Path to Discovery: Filming in Iceland and Saving Gotham City: The Monorail Chase Sequence), several Confidential Files featurettes (broken into Characters and Weaponry), an interactive Inner Demons comic book, theatrical trailers, a photo gallery, Easter eggs and DVD-ROM features (including a Batman Begins "mobile game demo" . The set will also include an exclusive 72-page comic book containing 3 reprinted issues/stories that influenced the film (including Detective Comics #37, Batman: The Man Who Falls and Batman: The Long Halloween). There's no word yet on possible audio commentary, and additional extras are likely TBA.
Here's a look at the cover art for both editions. Each is available for preorder now at Amazon.com (just click on the cover art)...

Im definitely buying Begins on the release date and I will have to check the others out. Im probly not getting the last three batman movies cuz they werent very good but I liked the first one so it is second on my list. If they do release a Mask of the Phantasm dvd I'll get that cuz it was good too.

I like the cover art on the regular Begins edition than the deluxe. THat is how it usually happens though.
All the sites that I have seen the features on have a typo for one of the included comic stories. It is probably supposed to be Detective Comics #27 not #37. 27 was Batman's first appearance.
Detective #27:
Detective #37:
I don't really know of any significance for the latter issue. The former, has a great significance, and a pretty cool story. I guess whoever typed the press release made a mistake.
