BatChat With Matt & Will: All Ages Thanksgiving 2025

Once Upon a Crime Banner

It’s time for our annual tradition here at BatChat, up there with cranberry sauce from a can, stuffing that’s a little too dry and avoiding conversations about politics with your red baseball cap wearing relatives: it’s all ages Thanksgiving. Three stories of Batman for the whole family come in some very different flavors this year: the next volume of the Webtoons Wayne Family Adventures strips, a younger readers OGN that retells classic children’s stories with a Batman twist and the second volume of the strangest concept we’ve ever talked about, the manga where Joker raises a de-aged baby Batman. Happy holidays to those who celebrate here in the states, and know we are thankful to all of you who listen.

  • Wayne Family Adventures V.3 (Wayne Family Adventures #52-71)
  • Batman Tales: Once Upon a Crime OGN
  • One Operation Joker V.2 (One Operation Joker Chapters 8-14)

This week’s BatChat column focuses on The Bat-Man: Second Knight #1.

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.
