Our latest for @sequentialscholars.bsky.social talks Gotham Central and cultural capital! #Batman #GothamCentral #ComicsStudies
As a cult classic that eschewed commercial success in favour of grounded storytelling, Gotham Central’s successes and failures provide a potent case study for the concept of cultural capital in the comics industry and the variant ways that we might define “success” as a concept. #gothamcentral 1/12

BatChat With Matt & Will: 666- The Story of the Beast

We read three stories an episode. So with that math, episode 222 means we are ranking story 666, which is certainly a portentous number. It's a number that screams horror. And it's not like we haven't covered plenty of Batman horror on this…

We read three stories an episode. So with that math, episode 222 means we are ranking story 666, which is certainly a portentous number. It's a number that screams horror. And it's not like we haven't covered plenty of Batman horror on this show. But as we get to that number here, we figured there's no better time to get back to it.

As many of you know, Evil Beast has been one of my personal campaigns for years. Seeing it happen in real time, I had to do a little reflecting on how we got here, and why I'm so excited about what it could mean moving forward.
With X-Men #24 taking the Age of Revelation Finale reveal to another level, this is a great time to talk about Beast’s evolution over the decades.

Toward the end of the episode, we end up learning a ton about X-Men circa 1999-2001. Domino Vol. 2 fans should tune in.

Our latest @sequentialscholars.bsky.social talks possibilities for storytelling subversion in Gotham Central. #Batman #GothamCentral #Spiderman #ComicsStudies
The first story arc of “Gotham Central,” titled “In the Line of Duty,” knowingly subverts expectations of a “traditional” superhero story. A comparison with a more traditional story arc, in Amazing Spider-Man Annual #6, underscores this subversion. 1/10 #Batman #GothamCentral #ComicsStudies

Our latest for @sequentialscholars.bsky.social talks revisionism in Gotham Central! #Batman #ComicsStudies #GothamCentral
In the introduction to “The Amazing Transforming Superhero,” Terrence R. Wandtke argues that superhero comics employ 4 common types of revisionism: additive, fundamental, conceptual, and critical. These categories can help us define the revisionism of “Gotham Central.” 1/11 #Batman #GothamCentral
