I'm just begging for DC Comics to release several B&B issues, especially the following team-ups:

1.Batman and Wildcat
2.Batman and Wonder Woman(including the Copperhead story with Batgirl, and the time when the two battled Catwoman)
3.Batman and Green Arrow
4.Batman and Plastic Man and Metamorpho

Can it be done?

All things are possible, but some things aren't very likely.

The Batman/GA team-ups could be a possibility. There were enough of those stories that a smallish collection could be produced. The question concerns how many of these stories are still available in a ready-to-print form. If even one story needs restoration work, that'd probably kill the project until the restoration is done, and that means an Archive or some other high-end format, like the upcoming "Batman: Illustrated by Neal Adams, Vol. 1".

You might have better luck if DC decides to reprint the 100-Page Super Spectaculars or creates another faux annual or "lost" Giant. Some of the stories you mention might turn up there.

If you have to wait for the Archives, you've got a long wait ahead of you.

They blew it. A Batman/GA paperback would have been awesome a couple of years ago when GA was a hot seller.

But the real fun (at least in my mind) was whenever Batman teamed with Wildcat. The two were similar in so many ways, and they made a great duo.
Looking back, DC really should reprint not just a handful, but volumes of Batman stories from the 1970s. That was some good stuff - great material that's still timely.
