Article on the 1964 "New Look" Batman

Post by SprangFan »

Hi, all.

I've been taking a break from the boards and Batman, so it's been a while since my last post, but I thought you might enjoy a recent series of blog posts by comics writer/historian Mark Evanier, recounting the "fateful Thursday" when he found the issue of Detective Comics that debuted the "New Look" Batman. It's an interesting combination of personal reminisces and behind-the-scenes DC history, told in 7 parts and starting here:

Safe and Happy Holidays to you and yours, and here's hoping for a great 2022.

"Or worse. Let's go..."

That was refreshing. It makes you think there is room for the “great detective” without all the gizmos and gadgets. Version 19.
Some days you just can't get rid of a ... SHARK!
