Some writers just get a lot of work. Joshua Williamson is one of those guys who has written in a lot of corners of the DC Universe. He had a long run on Flash, wrote the Dark Crisis event, is the current writer on Superman, and is soon taking over Legion of Super-Heroes. He also has spent quite a bit of time in the Batman corner of the DC Universe, with a caretaker run on the main book in between James Tynion IV and Chip Zdarsky, and run on the most recent volume of Batman/Superman, and (salient for this episode) a long run furthering Damian Wayne’s arc in the Robin ongoing and Batman & Robin. Patreon backer and avowed Damian Wayne fan Josh Weil is here to talk about two of those important Damian Wayne stories by Williamson, as well as his Batman/Flash combo, The Red Death, from Dark Nights: Metal.
- The Lazarus Tournament (Batman V.3 #106, Detective Comics V.3 #1034, Robin V.3 #1-6)
- Welcome to Dinosaur Island (Batman & Robin V.3 #11-13)
- Ride the Lightning (Batman: The Red Death #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.
