Issue 10 - Dark Night: A True Batman Story

Issue 10! It's our tenth episode! Double digits! Yahoo!  That means this episode is extra special... which means extra guest co-hosts! Nick is joined again by Aleighnna, Max, and Brett to talk about a Batman story! ... sort of. On this episode we are talking about a deeply personal story by Paul Dini. Being a writer of comics, videogames, tv shows (and pretty much everything you like), Dini has been through a lot in his life. This story is about a traumatic experience he went through in the 90's during his celebrated tenure on Batman The Animated Series. He recounts the events from this period in a real, visceral way all while combining it with the thoughts of characters he was working on at the time... mainly Batman characters.  Joined by artist extraordinaire, Eduardo Risso, this book is truly something unique and worth deep diving. So sit back, put your thinking caps on, and let's get introspective! ... and maybe we will talk about the big Mr. Pibb vs Pibb Xtra debate.  WARNING: THIS EPISODE DOES CONTAIN TALK OF SOME SENSITIVE ISSUES AS THEY PERTAIN TO THE BOOK DISCUSSED. THESE TOPICS INCLUDE DEPRESSION, SELF HARM, AND PHYSICAL ASSAULT.
