Episode 255: The Classic Batman for Casual Fans

Casual Comics Cast

Part 2 of our look back at the pre-Dark Knight Batman series takes us back to some very different Batman experiences. For those who loved (or who will soon love) the 1966 Batman move and TV series, we've got discussion and reviews of:

• Batman 66 - The 2013 comic book series that picks up the characters, tone, and wit of the beloved series
• "Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders" and "Batman: Two Face" - the animated movies with voice cast from the 1966 series
• Detective Comics #43 - Classic Batman action from the 1940s. What the heck was up with Batman comics back then?
• And, our review of "The Wrong Earth: Trapped on Teen Planet" - one of our favorite series from Ahoy Comics that picks up the tone and style of the classic 60s Batman and crosses that character with the dark, gritty post-Dark Knight version of Gotham
