Adams revisits his Batman Christmas Eve classic …

Every Christmas Eve we run a tribute to one of Neal Adams’ first solo Batman stories — The Silent Night of the Batman, a gentle tale written by Mike Friedrich, from Batman #219, which hit stands late in 1969.

So, how cool is that Adams returns to the Darknight Detective this week (11/30) with the sequel, The Not So Silent Night of the Harley Quinn, written by Harley creator Paul Dini in the Batman Annual #1 anthology.

Observe:

Fantastic.

Interesting too that, like the original, the cover gives no hint of this particular story inside:

David Finch on the left. Adams on the right. Oh, and check out that massive list of credits in Batman Annual #1. Looks like one hell of an anthology.

Ah, tradition.
