The caped crusader debuted 85 years ago (yesterday). The big celebration isn’t until Batman Day in September, but here’s wishing the dark knight a Happy Birthday! I’ve had the privilege and pleasure of writing stories for over half a dozen Batman titles, and I hope to do more in the future…

I’ve had the privilege of writing for five different Batman titles over the years, and I’ll be contributing stories to a sixth title in 2024. The Bat has been good to me. Appreciate the Bat. Love the Bat. Happy Batman Day!
