Love is in the air. It’s nearly Valentine’s Day, and for the past couple of his appearances, Patreon backer and friend of the show Josh Weil has mentioned that he’s been considering selecting one of the few truly whimsical and just plane fun stories Tom King has written: “Date Night,” where Batman an Catwoman go on a double date with Superman and Lois Lane. And since this week his appearance lined up with Valentine’s, we figured it was time to finally add that story to the big board. Also, Bruce and Talia go on an animated series style date in Paris in a story with an inappropriate title and Nightwing and Oracle get married in a crossover that is mostly forgotten but was a breath of fresh air at the time.
- Super Friends: Date Night (Batman V.3 #36-37)
- Last Tango in Paris (Batman Adventures V.1 #13)
- Birds of Rage (Convergence: Nightwing/Oracle #1-2)
This week’s BatChat column focuses on the first Absolute universe crossover Batman #6.
