OK, this is sort of the ultimate in comic book nerdage right here but somebody actually took the time to study the differences between many different printings of some classic Neal Adams & Dick Giordano BATMAN art. Mainly, the famous kiss of Bruce Wayne & Talia ( Ra's Al Ghul's Daughter ).

If you study them for a little while you can see that the tiny differences create an adverse effect. The four pictures represent:
Personally, I like the example from the 1970's. I mean, why mess with perfection! ( Thanks to Jerry for sending the cool pics ).
- Batman #244 (1972)
- The Saga of Ra's Al Ghul (1987)
- Tales of the Demon (1991)
- Tales of the Demon (2008)
