#069 Remembering Adam West: Our Lives With Batman
In the wake of Adam West's not-so-recent passing, we felt compelled to do a "thanks for the memories, Adam" episode. But, well, every episode functions as that, so this time, we present the memories of many other bat-fans who grew up watching Adam a co. in syndication (and, in two cases, on Wednesday and Thursday nights in the '60s!). Not coincidentally, our guests are now working in comics themselves.... With one exception: our mom, Joann! Tim interviewed her while visiting home last month, to hear her memories of our Bat-fandom, and how her sewing skills helped to augment that fandom! 11:43 Ken Holtzhouser 14:16 Dale Lazarov, writer and art director of Sticky Graphic Novels Chicago, IL 19:54 Dylan Maconis, OutfoxedKarl Kesel, writer and inker of various Marvel and DC comicsHelioscope Studio, Portland, OR 30:50 Cat Farris, The Last DiplomatHelioscope Studio, Portland, OR 37:00 Christopher Jones, artist on many titles including The Batman Strikes, Batman '66 #7 (False Face), Dr. Who Minneapolis, MN 47:07 Stephen Bissette, Swamp Thing, Tyrant, instructor at the Center for Cartoon Studies, White River Junction, VTCraig Fischer, professor at Appalacian State University, Boone, NC occasional writer for The Comics Journal Interviewed at the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, Columbus, OH 1:26:28 Joann Young (our mom!)
