BatChat With Matt & Will: X Marks the Bat (w/ Adam Reck)

Hothouse Banner

We’re comics fans, so we all love a crossover, right? So why shouldn’t that expand to our podcasts? It’s ComicsXF podcast crossover week, so Matt is joined by Battle of the Atom host Adam Reck to talk about three Batman stories from creators whose work are favorites on BotA. John Francis Moore moves out of 2099 to Gotham in the 90s, Chris Bachalo draws a atman story released the same month as the first issue of Generation X and we read the first issue of Larry Hama’s short and much maligned run on Batman. It’s a fun time, and Will may or may not pop by for ranking.

Also, I am sorry to say that Matt’s audio on the Adam sections came through the wrong mic, so it’s a little rough. Not impossible, just rough. I send my regrets to your ears.

Matt Lazorwitz read his first comic at the age of five. It was Who's Who in the DC Universe #2, featuring characters whose names begin with B, which explains so much about his Batman obsession. He writes about comics he loves, and co-hosts the creator interview podcast WMQ&A with Dan Grote.

Adam Reck is the cartoonist behind Bish & Jubez as well as the co-host of Battle Of The Atom.

Will Nevin loves bourbon and AP style and gets paid to teach one of those things. He is on Twitter far too often.
