As someone who loves to read, and who is always on the hunt for some new and interesting book to check out, I often find myself relying on any number of potential sources. I take recommendations, check out best-sellers, and sometimes even seek out authors who I’m […]
A very common question when getting to know someone is to ask what their favorite movie is. Should be a simple question, but I’m the type of guy who will launch into a rant about how it’s impossible to pick a single favorite, because such things can […]
Hi there everyone, and welcome back to yet another installment of Bat Signal, my never-ending quest to read every issue of Detective Comics, in random order, and with basically no context. And we’re taking a trip to the relative modern day this week folks, specifically the time in Gotham […]
Hey everybody! So I know that I’ve been complaining that there’s been a distinct lack of serious or emotional episodes in the series lately. And I stand by that. It was a defining feature of what made the Golden Age so great. But it’s not like I […]
Hey look everybody; it’s the episode I always assume “the Grift of the Magi” is! Let’s watch! The episode opens up with the family going to the Magic Castle, I guess the one in Los Angeles? Whatever, they get there and prepare to have drinks and watch […]

Hey everybody, want to see what happens if Krusty had a kid? It worked for Apu! Let’s go! The episodes begins with the auspicious opening of Homer and Bart hanging out in the backyard, filling a watermelon with firecrackers. They celebrate after blowing it the hell up […]
Season Twelve hasn’t exactly started with a bang. That Treehouse of Horror episode was pretty spotty, and after Season Eleven’s general lowering of quality, that kind of felt like some dark omens. But you know what? This week is pretty fun. Not incredibly great, don’t get me […]
