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.
It's all here and we want to hear what you think. Comment here or write us at thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com.
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.
