BatChat With Matt & Will: Farewell, Darwyn Cooke

Night of the Stalker Banner

Over the past 169 episodes, we have covered work from a lot of creators. And I can’t think of one that we have unanimously and consistently lauded than the late Darwyn Cooke. A writer artist like few others, Cooke passed away at a tragically young age, leaving a body of work that would have only grown. This week, we are covering the last comic Cooke was involved with that has any Batman related content, as well as two other comics that are related to it, one very directly, and one a bit more tangentially.

  • Night of the Stalker (Detective Comics V.1 #439)
  • Solo #5
  • The Bad News, or The Butterfly (The Question V.1 #1-4)

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.
