Batman and Little Annie Fanny



I remember sneaking a peek at my neighbor's Playboy collection when I was a kid and being somewhat fascinated by Little Annie Fanny.  Of course the stories had some more, ahem, obvious assets to entice an impressionable young boy... but I was also quite impressed with the detailed artwork by Will Elder.  I couldn't believe such a good artist was working on such a titillating project!  Years later I would see plenty of top tier comic artists contributing to erotica and risque material, but this was by far the first such example I had ever seen.   Ah, the innocence of youth!

    Priceless!

    Holy hot-chick, Batman!

    "Strange stirrings" in the utility belt, INDEED!

    I have the large coffee table book of the collected stories. It was in fantastic condition once. I went to college ( Joe Kubert school of cartoon and graphic illustration inc. ) and my parents used to let my older brother who is not right in the head go in my room when they would bring him home for the weekend. Well needless to say...my book now has tears on the once beautiful and spotless and crisp white dust jacket to go along with the coffee cup stains.
    But the book itself is in great shape and has lots of awesome artwork by some of the best.
    But I still think about my crazy brother and his coffee cup stains every time I think of Little Annie Fannie!

    By the way...these are great. I had to share them with a ton of my comic friends.

    Is there the obvious Batman and Bucky? How about Batman and the Squadron Supreme?

    Both have already been done and posted in my first batch of B&B covers, just use the search function to find them or check through the archives, it's mostly alphabetical.

    From where did you get this image? While it is not a Batman '66 comic (this cover predates the digital first series) the Batcave and Batmobile are obviously modeled after the TV series. I would love to know the source so that I can track down this comic.
