    Interview: Jeff Parker, Michael Moreci and Dan Parent on ‘Archie Meets Batman ’66’

    J. Caleb Mozzocco, September 27, 2018 | Interviews

    Gotham City circa 1966 was an almost ideal place to commit crimes.

    Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II Writer: James Tynion IV Artist: Freddie Williams II DC Comics; $3.99 Rated T for Teen Batman and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles may sound like they go together about as well as some of the pizza toppings enjoyed by the latter in their original cartoon iteration—you know, marshmallows and pepperoni, […]

    Review: ‘Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures’

    J. Caleb Mozzocco, July 31, 2017 | Reviews

    Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures Writer: Matthew K. Manning Artists: Jon Sommariva and Sean Parsons IDW Publishing; $19.99 Last year’s unlikely Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover series played it safe and straight, and was perhaps as earnest a story featuring such wildly divergent franchises as possible. That had the unfortunate side effect of making it […]

    Interview: Sholly Fisch on Scooby-Doo Team-Up

    J. Caleb Mozzocco, December 9, 2013 | Interviews

    The 1972 iteration of the Scooby-Doo cartoon, The New Scooby-Doo Movies, teamed the mystery-solving teenagers and their Great Dane with a different guest star each episode, some of them cartoon versions of real-life celebrities, others cartoon characters themselves. Among the most fondly remembered episodes were the pair in which Scooby and the gang teamed up […]

    J. Caleb Mozzocco, September 16, 2013 | Reviews

    Batman is Brave and Superman Fights for Truth Written by Donald Lemke, drawn by Ethen Beavers Picture Windows Books, $7.99   Given how dangerous being a superhero can be, I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone under the age of 18, and I don’t care what Robin says or does (If Robin jumped off the Gotham […]
