BatChat With Matt & Will: That is the Question
When she was created for Batman: The Animated Series, I can’t imagine the series creators realized what a life Renee Montoya would have in the comics.

BatChat With Matt & Will: The Angel, The Ivy, The Demon Star
This week, BatChat is returning to the three runs we’ve been following in order. Well, sorta. Yes, we’re reading the next arc of No Man’s Land and the penultimate arc of Grant Morrison’s epic run.

BatChat With Matt & Will: Elements, Guy and Chessboards. Oh, My!
Superman was pretty great, huh? We wanted to keep the good times rolling this week with an episode featuring characters other than the big guy who appeared in the movie. I really wanted to do a Batman/Mr. Terrific team up, but outside team settings, there aren’t really any, so we instead went with a classic…

The birth of the new DC Cinematic Universe… DC Extended Universe… DC… ah whatever the hell they’re calling it, kicks off on the big screen this week with the debut of James Gunn’s Superman film, so we’re obviously tying in because SEO is a powerful thing.

BatChat With Matt & Will: A Pride Tribute to Kevin Conroy
The evolution of representation of queer characters in mainstream superhero comics is something that entire books can, and should, be written about.
