James Robinson might be best known for writing the 90s classic, Starman, but he’s written a bunch of Batman too. And this week, Josh Weil stops by to talk about three of Robinson’s stories. We have a Pulp Heroes annual, and two tales of Two-Face. There are some unfortunate sexy corpses, questionable editing and the question of when a story really deserves a sequel.
Pardon the sound on the back half here; there were some technical difficulties and I cleaned them up as best I could
