BAT BITS #20 NOW LIVE on Patreon: Advice to Bat-writers in 1965, pt 1

We had heard before that it existed, and we've finally found it: Lorenzo Semple's 14-page "Batnotes" memo to prospective Bat-writers about "a few simple rules and concepts" about what should or should not happen in a Batman script. Tim and Paul want to dig through this carefully, so in this episode they discuss the first few pages, with more to come. In this episode: Qualities of Gotham City, why the show shouldn't move on to other settings, the mystery of our heroes' other identities, and qualities of the Bat-foes. Plus: how YOU can help Tim and Paul assemble a TO THE BATPOLES! episode on this topic! Listen to Bat Bits and see the memo we're discussing by subscribing to our Patreon for at least $2 a month!
