We've got a holiday special for you, Citizens! The 12 Days of Batmas where John and a special guest sit down and discuss an issue of Batman or Detective Comics and figure out to adapt it to the 1966 television show.
​
For the fifth day of Batmas, John and writer Jim Beard discuss Batman #81. In it, they talk about the look for Mr. Camera, the casting of the villain with gang members, and a means to make the ending a little more exciting.

A native Toledoan, Jim Beard was introduced to comic books at an early age by his father, who passed on to him a love for the medium and the pulp characters who preceded it. After decades of reading, collecting and dissecting comics, Jim became a published writer when he sold a story to DC Comics in 2002. Since that time he’s written official Star Wars and Ghostbusters comic stories and contributed articles and essays to several volumes of comic book history.
