Hi there everyone, and welcome back for yet another installment of Bat Signal, my never-ending mission to read every issue of Detective Comics that’s ever been published, in random order, and with basically no context. And, it looks like we’re getting yet another comic that’s cover features a melodramatic vignette of Batman and Robin breaking up,…

Well folks, we’ve made it through yet another season of the Simpsons. Season 31 certainly had its ups and downs, primarily downs, but we’ve crossed another one off the list. And yet, after a recent string of truly bad episodes, I was pretty eager to wrap this season up. Last week’s episode had…

Have you ever heard about the concept of director jail? Basically it’s the idea that if a director proves to be untrustworthy, either by delivering massive flop or by difficult to work with personally, they kind of lose their personal cache in the industry, and find themselves unable to actually make any more…

The random number generator gods have spoken, and it looks like this week we’re taking a look at another film that I’ve seen before, and that I’m quite fond of. However, unlike most of the movies that I’ve seen before in the course of this project, I really think that this is only the…

Hello everyone, and welcome back for yet another installment of Bat Signal, my never-ending quest to read every issue of Detective Comics ever published in random order, and with basically no context.

After the last two week’s….unpleasantness, I wasn’t exactly champing at the bit to tackle more Simpsons here on the site. We’ve almost crossed another seasons off the books, but two of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen have certainly taken the wind out of my sails. Which, may have had some effect on my…

The random number generator I’m letting run this whole project seems to be giving us alternating weeks between movies I’ve seen before and loved, and ones I’m seeing for the first time. So, after getting to experience A Matter of Life and Death for the first time last week I guess it’s fitting to change things…

Hello everyone, and welcome back to yet another installment of Bat Signal, my never-ending mission to read every issue of Detective Comics ever published, in random order, and with essentially no context. And we’re getting to talk about a very interesting issue of comics today. It’s from the era right after the epic “No Man’s Land”…

Well, here we are again. Last week I had the gift of talking about one of my least favorite episodes of the Simpsons I’ve ever seen. And, against all logic, that was only the first half of a two-party story, so I also got to dread revisiting the second half of the story…
