Hey all, it’s Nico here with a Batman Day Special! DC has decided that Batman Day is here and so I’m here to bring my love of the Dark Knight in a special way. This isn’t just an episode but it focuses on my entry point to the Batman Universe (The Long Halloween) and what I would come to understand about it. Separately, my intro to Daredevil was The Man Without Fear by Frank Miller, and so Miller’s impact on DD would come to be so familiar from my time on DD. That means it’s time to think about the origin of Batman, the origin of my Batman fandom, and more by comparing the at-the-time definitive origin stories: Batman Year One (Batman #404 - 407 [02/87 - 05/87]) vs Haunted Night (Legend Of The Dark Knight Halloween Special #1 - 3 [1993 - 1995]), Batman Year Two (Detective Comics #575 – 578 [06/87 - 06/87]) vs The Long Halloween (Chapter One - Thirteen [12/96 - 12/97]), and Batman Year Three (Batman #436 – 436 [08/89 - 09/89]) vs Dark Victory (Chapter Zero - Thirteen [11/99 - 12/00])!

It happens but once a year: the entirety of fandom (either physically or psychically) descends upon San Diego to soak every ounce of nerd madness, geek magic, and more – and this year really raised the stakes. Star Trek rolled out huge announcements, major trailers, and excited dates; DC announced next level programming, new titles, and more James Gunn; but Marvel definitely stole the show with the retitled fifth Avengers movie, the lack of anything Kang, and the shocking return of RDJ as someone who left Gwyneth Paltrow saying, “I don’t get it.” This and so much more on a special news update X Is For Show!
