Falcon Seven, kudos for figuring out "Holy Cow Batman!" in Vietnamese, I was actually trying to think of it the other day. And before anyone mistaken Jake0748's comment for you know.. fact, in that panel Robin says "The pirates are almost here Batman!" Yes, there are pirates! I haven't completely translated all of this, but just FYI, there's also Bat girl, who does NOTHING. And Robin is called "Binh" in Vietnamese, which doesn't really correlate to Robin except for maybe the pronunciation of the second syllable. So I guess I have to comment on this since I’m the only one I’ve seen on BoingBoing with an obvious Vietnamese handle.

The cover seems to have lifted some Batman influences from the TV show - that could be Adam West calling on the Batphone. I think '67 is a closer date. The inadvertent goofs are funny, too: I love the fish spouting bubbles up to the word balloon in the submarine sequence - it makes it seem like a tuna is narrating.
