We saw Batman’s penis!!!!
This past week the first issue of Batman: Damned came out and DAAAAAAAMN. There is some full frontal Batman. It is not disappointing.
Some other stuff happens in this comic too. He kills the Joker maybe? Who cares because BAT DONG!
I mean, you can see veins. Well done, Lee Bermejo. You did it.
See you next week when we talk about something WAY less interesting.
Since there were a couple of news items this past week relating to Superman and Batman movies, we decided to look back at all previous Superman and Batman movies.
I have to make a correction, too. Probably several, but the one I can remember is that I said that the Starfire character on Titans is a prostitute but I don’t think she actually is. I had just heard that, but I can’t find verification anywhere. I can’t find anything that says otherwise, either, but let’s assume that she is not actually a prostitute. Not that there is anything wrong with being a sex worker of any kind, but comic book-based entertainment has a long history of not depicting sex workers in the most…sensitive and respectful light. Anyway, the show still looks very bad.
Here is Michael Kupperman’s Dick Crazy comic, for your enjoyment:
See you next week!
We wrapped up the summer book club this week with The Infinity Gauntlet.
I still have a headache from it.
Here is that tweet I promised I would find the author of and credit. It was Rusty Shackles, in reply to Jeff Parker:
