BatChat With Matt & Will: An Odyssey Into Madness (w/ Matt McThorn)

Matthew Lazorwitz and Will Nevin3 months ago2 months ago02 mins

I usually try to put something witty or informative here. But this week, Patreon backer Matt McThorn is back, and he asked us to read Neal Adams’s mad dream, Batman: Odyssey. He didn’t know what he was getting himself or us into, so we have forgiven him, but this one feels like an all-timer. We…

We’ve done episodes before that look at three versions of one story. But of there’s one story that has seemingly been retold more than any other, it’s the first Batman story, “The Case of the Chemical Syndicate.” This week, we’re reading four versions of that story over three issues, plus some other stories in an…

BatChat With Matt & Will: Still a Very Uncomfortable Stereotype

Matthew Lazorwitz and Will Nevin2 years ago2 years ago02 mins

They stalk the night. When they have your name, you are as good as dead, so pray that you never draw their attention. They are the League of Assassins. Whether they serve Ra’s al Ghul, his daughter Talia, the Sensei or any other master, the League has been a thorn in the side of Batman…

BatChat With Matt & Will Episode 30: The Demon’s Head-Line

Matthew Lazorwitz and Will Nevin3 years ago3 years ago02 mins

Among Batman’s many foes are serial killers, madmen and monsters. But few are the type of villain who seeks to dominate or control the world. The one who is, possibly the foe that Batman respects and fears the most, is Ra’s al Ghul, the Demon’s Head. Seemingly immortal, Ra’s wants to return the world to…

BatChat With Matt & Will Episode 13: Chekhov’s Two-Face

Matthew Lazorwitz and Will Nevin3 years ago3 years ago02 mins

Sometimes it’s hard to judge a story. Sometimes you might need to… flip a coin. Yes, that is a labored wordplay to get to something to tie into this week’s subject, Batman’s (possibly) second greatest foe, former district attorney Harvey Dent, best known as Two-Face. Fortunately, these stories didn’t require any coin tosses for their…

BatChat With Matt & Will Ep.7: The Clown Prince of Carnage

Matthew Lazorwitz and Will Nevin4 years ago4 years ago02 mins

He’s Batman’s greatest nemesis. He is as mutable as his foe, appearing sometimes as a whacky criminal clown, sometimes as a terrifying homicidal maniac, and sometimes as an urban terrorist. He is the Joker. And this week, Matt and Will look at three single issue Joker stories in their first villain spotlight episode. The Joker’s…
