Who hasn’t posed near the Batmobile?
Word came out yesterday that Adam West/Burt Ward Batman series would finally be coming to home video, and this has been confirmed by Warner Home Video. While the theatrical movie has been available on home video for years, rights issues blocked the television series from hitting DVD or Blu-Ray (please tell me there will be DVDs and not just a Blu-Ray release) until apparently recently. Rumors came out that this was going to happen but always turned out to be wishful thinking. Meanwhile episodes play on the Hub network.

COLORIST: Dave Grafe COVER ART: John Pound ASSISTANT EDITOR: Mike Brisbois EDITOR: Bronwyn Taggart The Herculoids: “Bother From Another Planet” WRITER: Michael Kraiger PENCILER: Graham anley INKER: Jorge Pacheco LETTERER: Clem Robins Shazzan: “Kaboobie’s Prize” WRITER: Papo Martin PENCILER: J.J. Birch INKER: Bob SMith LETTERER: John CostanzaThis issue also features credits for the Moltar and Clyde bumpers thus far. I’m going to go back and add them to the credits in those reviews but oddly they still forgot to list for this issue.
To be honest, I’m surprised it took them this long. Once IDW had both Transformers and G.I. Joe under their thumb you knew a crossover would be coming. Marvel did it. Dreamwave and Devil’s Due did it and DD did so well I’m surprised they didn’t get the license when Dreamwave fell. Newsarama’s Zack Smith has an interview with Tom Scioli, co-writer of the upcoming IDW crossover.
Now we need to pressure IDW to make a My Little Pony crossover. Come on, would My Little Transformer really make less sense than the “Infestation” crossovers?

Trying to escape to a better adaptation.
Both Hollywood and the comics industry have been bringing back some the 80’s favorites, or even sooner. Josie and the Pussycats, Voltron, He-Man, Underdog, and more are all over the place. Fans, including those who grew up with these shows, should be pleased. Right?
Ask fans of Land Of The Lost if Will Ferrel did a good job on paying tribute to the old show. As Godzilla fans if the Tri-Star movie makes them less or more concerned for Legendary’s run, even though parent company Warner Brothers seems to be limiting promotion as much as possible? The problem isn’t that our childhood is coming back, it’s that it really isn’t.
