Holy Licensing Windfalls! Jeff Parker & Jonathan Case Deliver BATMAN ’66 Digital First Series
March 22, 2013 5:03 pm Hey Paul!
To clarify, Warner just has merch rights, but the actual TV series is still in dispute between Fox Greenway, and and Warners, right?

You Tell Us: Who is Your Definitive Batman Artist? [Update]
January 10, 2013 2:41 pm Sorry I didn't realize this was a "contest"
Make my vote for Jim Aparo.
why? Because even Neal Adams who correctly said most of the Post "69 Neal peer Bat artists like Don Newton Marshal Rogers and others would start with his Batman, and put their own flourishes on top. The one guy he said still made his own Batman along side his, was Jim Aparo. Aparo was able to balance the nocturnal Batman with all the other heroes he'd draw Bats with in Brave and Bold, without losing the mythic quality, even in daytime action shots.

You Tell Us: Who is Your Definitive Batman Artist? [Update]
January 10, 2013 2:25 pm Gil Kane? Not much career Batman from him IIRC.
Neal and Jim Aparo were my introductory Batman artists when I was first buying comics, along with 70's Don Newton stuff.
But the 1950's Dick Sprang stuff was all over the 100 page spectaculars too, so his Batman was an early fav of mine.

‘Young Justice’ – S02E10 – “Before The Dawn”
January 6, 2013 8:18 am when is it over? whenever the series runs out of completed episodes. like many cartoons this series isn't getting renewed beyond its initial order, just like the legion of super heroes cartoon. enjoy it while it lasts.

Your New Batgirl Writer is…Gail Simone?

"It was the new editor on BG that canned her, apparently some of the higher ups disagreed with that. "\
You have proof of that? I think while the new editor may have been the one to notify her, I'm betting that initial call came from someone higher.

Your New Batgirl Writer is…Gail Simone?
December 21, 2012 5:13 pm I'm betting this is very much like when Waid & Mike Wieringo were being taken off FF, then Marvel saw the fan outcry and put them back on the book.
