Those early days were great fun. Very few of us were out there in those days, making us really stand out, LOL! I loved seeing you folks in your suits. Who else was out and about before it was 'popular' to do cosplay?

I was scanning some of the pics for my upcoming book, and came across some shots of my earliest 1966 Batman costumes.

Licensing is expensive, time consuming, and at times a big pain in the butt, but I wouldn't trade it for a...

Keith, would you consider contributing to a future book, perhaps regarding a season two episode? Jim is looking for authors and for different and interesting perspectives...Just a thought!

Thanks for your kinds words, folks. It's going to be a blast. Once we scrape and paint the ceiling, we will begin construction on the Wayne Manor set and the theater. The plan is to have patrons be able to operate the switch in the Shakespeare bust to open the bookcase for photo ops. The theater wil...

Absolutely beautiful video guys! Kudos on a great song, great execution of that song, and then on choice of shots, CGI, and editing. Brilliant! Some Easter Eggs were obvious, and some not so much. Here is my list: 1) Bronson Cavern 2) 1955 Lincoln Futura 3) Hairpin turn shot recreation 4) 14 mile si...

Sadly, we have had to postpone the 2020 Batcon until 2021 due to the COVID-19 virus. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Here are two of Troy's pics from 2019:

After a hairy two plus weeks, our website is finally (mostly) back up and running. The store is finally up and running again, using Paypal for the checkout. We will eventually get Square up and running again as an alternative. Thanks so much for your patience while we waited for our webmaster to get...

That's awesome, Chuck! As gifted as you are, it shouldn't be any surprise to find you right in there with the other talented people. Cool!
