Go to Pop Culture Safari for Bat-posts!

I'm simplifying my life and focusing all my blogging on my main, first, online outpost: Pop Culture Safari. I hope you'll join me there for pop culture posts of all types -- including more Batman!

I plan to leave this blog as-is, but likely won't post new information here unless I have a change of mind.

Thanks for visiting!

It's coming! Complete 1960s Batman TV series on disk! Really!

I wondered if I'd ever see the day... Details are still on the way, but USA Today has confirmed -- tipped off by Tweet by Conan O'Brien -- that all three seasons of the Batman TV series starring Adam West are finally coming to DVD and, I presume, Blu-ray (I may need to buy a Blu-ray player...) later this year.

Stay tuned!

Buy a 1966 Batman utility belt!

Available via Mattel's collector site, Matty Collector, is a 1966 replica Batman utility belt. Handy, but it'll set you back $125.

Details:

No joke… if you’re going to vanquish villains and save Gotham City, you’ll need a groovy utility belt just like the one worn by Batman™ in the 1960s television series!

Created with Warner Bros. Entertainment and designed to fit adults, the 43” belt is authentically styled and includes four pouches that open from the bottom, just like they did on the show. It also features four opening tubes and a 12” blue plastic Batarang that folds up neatly to slide right into one of the pouches for hands-free crime fighting.

A cool art piece that was recently up for auction. Sheldon Moldoff, a key Batman artist (i.e. Bob Kane "assistant") of the Golden Age, created this in the late 1990s.
