Re: Batman: Caped Crusader first look photos

It's also interesting to note that apparently this show's characterization of Catwoman is going to be based on Barbara Stanwyck's character in Th...

Re: Batman: Caped Crusader first look photos

I'm excited about this, have been since the get go on this project which seems like a looooong time ago now. I adore BTAS, it's my "other" Batman, for sure. I'm remaining optimisitic that Timm's more recent track record is not going to similarly define the shape of this show. Very intruige...

Re: Podcast Topics
