Killer Croc: Detective Comics #523, Batman #357, Detective Comics #524, Batman #358, Detective Comics #525, and Batman #359. Snowman: Batman #337 and Detective Comics #522I have noticed that several of Batman's foes (Scarecrow, Two Face, Ra's al Ghul) have gotten TPBs dedicated to them. It's time to give Batman's monster foes the same treatment. I would just do it a little different and put them all in one book. A nice fat TPB!I know you are asking...why the Snowman? Because the reason is the question. Think on that for a bit.
This is one of the funniest comic strips I have ever seen!

The Red Tornado has been playing a major part in the Justice League for decades and these two issues put him on the map for me.
I know a George Perez Justice League of America TPB is in the works, but I would love to have these collected with the Kurt Busiek and Carmine Infantino mini-series.
OR
Have a collection; which comprised of all the Red Tornado tales told in the World's Finest Comics from issue #265-270 and 272 and his greatest moments in the Justice League issues.

This four issue story arc I found interesting, because it took on the concept of the elements being personified in the DC-verse.
Fun Fact (clipped from Wikipedia): Naiad (Mai Miyazaki) is the elemental of water for the planet Earth. The Parliament of Waves, is a group made up of older Water Elementals. The five Elemental Parliaments (Trees, Waves, Stone, Flames, Vapors) were destroyed by a Spectre level being called The Word. Naiad shares the title of "Elemental" with Firestorm the elemental of (fire), Red Tornado the elemental of (air), and Swamp Thing the elemental of (plants).

This mini-series picks up, storywise, where Neal Adams left off from his original run in Strange Adventures; which was published in a Deadman Collection in 2001. There is a 17 year gap of stories ignored between the Collection and this mini-series.
This would be a nice edition to sit next to the Neal Adams collection...plus both the DC Comics Presents and mini-series were drawn by José Luis García-López and you can't go wrong with his art. I'd buy it just for that fact alone.
