There was a time in the pre-Crisis days when Batman and Superman were the best of friends. But then the Crisis, and Frank Miller, came along, and things changed. For most of a decade, Batman and Superman’s relationship ranged from confrontational to cordial. Patreon backer Josh Weil returns this week to trace the evolution of that relationship back to friendlier terms in three Superman stories guest starring Batman.
- Dark Knight Over Metropolis (Superman V.2 #44, Adventures of Superman V.1 #467, Action Comics V.1 #654)
- Hazard’s Choice (Action Comics V.1 #719)
- Superman: The Wedding Album
The BatChat column catches up after the holiday with Batman: Dark Patterns #1, Batman & Robin #16, Batman: The Long Halloween- The Last Halloween #3 and The Batman & Svooby-Doo Mysteries #12.

Matt Lazorwitz read his first comic at the age of 5. It was Who's Who in the DC Universe #2, featuring characters whose names begin with B, which explains so much about his Batman obsession. He writes about comics he loves, and co-hosts the podcasts BatChat with Matt & Will and The ComicsXF Interview Podcast.
Will Nevin loves bourbon and AP style and gets paid to teach one of those things. He is on Twitter far too often.
