Superheroes were an American invention, at least the modern conception of them. But they have spread across the world and taken on many forms. We’ve done an episode about Batman stories across the world before, but this weeks we’re focusing specifically on Batman stories from Japan. We’re reading the first collection of stories that spun…

This week, BatChat is once more joined by Patreon backer and friend of the show Matt McThorn.

Battle of the Atom blazes it up for its 420th episode with three X-Men stories you may have to be stoned to read.
The Creeper is a weird character. He’s a guy with yellow skin, a green and black banana hammock, and a red fur boa. That’s a heck of a look. He’s also a good guy that most think is a bad guy. And sometimes he hangs out in Gotham City. That’s a lot on a character…
