Thought I'd start this thread as a sort of counter to the doom and gloom of the necessary RIP posts-- Is today or this week a birthday of a Batman world person who had nothing to do with the show but everything to do with the Batman Universe? Post it here!
I'll start!
Today is DICK SPRANG'S Birthday-- JIM BEARD did a terrific salute to him over on 13th Dimension. When I think Later Golden Age Batman Sprang is who comes to mind. He brought a Chester Gould DICK TRACY feel to the strip and he started with Bob Kane many years before he fully took over in his own style-- BATMAN #19 (1943) was his first full issue-- he did all the stories and the cover of that one! A real classic!
