Episode: THEN AND NOW: Batman #1 (1940/2016)
Description: Batman is over 80 years old as a character. He just got a new movie, and it's about time I, the Comic Archivist, finally dipped his toe in talking about the massive brand that is Batman, namely his very first solo title, and then the first of his latest title... which is still over 5 years ago. Well this should be fun. Long too.I may have to do a new one because of Dawn of DC. Oops.
