This month, we welcome our Bat-Cousin, and another Batman Family letterhack, Martin Maenza, to the Reunion!  The Huntress meets her Uncle Bruce and the rest of the Bat Family!  Man-Bat meets the Demon!  Bat-Cousin Shawn’s apple pie wins an award (4^th place)!  But the big news is that Batman Family is now a DOLLAR COMIC!  We bite off the tasty morsels of stories, as Batman and Robin team up to save Lori, the Bat-Ladies take on Catwoman, Poison Ivy, and Madame Zodiac, and we await the arrival of Baby-Bat!

Check out Martin’s work at the 5 Earths project:  https://5earths.info/

Shawn and Paul are sitting alone at the picnic table this month but hoo-boy! What an issue to discuss! We get Robin, Batgirl, Bat-Girl, Commissioner Gordon, Cold-Shoulder Lori, strange video equipment, father-daughter teasing, a color-blind villain, and plenty of hamburgers – all in the first story!  Man-Bat shares billing (and the reward) with Jason Bard (who also eats a burger) in our second story as they save Francine from the Shotgun Sniper! Shed a tear as Shawn shares a tale of heartbreak over Superman vs. Muhammad Ali!  Come on down to the Wayne Family Gardens and join the fun!

This month we have two all-star relatives at the reunion!

A big Bat-hello to Bat-Cousin Craig Boldman, a comics professional for many years who actually had a letter printed in Batman Family #12!  Listen to the segment on the Batmail Family Special Delivery from this issue, as we discuss how the other readers of the day dissect his plan to rename Robin as Robin Hood!  You should check out his website and then take a look at all his comics credits!  Thanks to listener Doug Vandiver for pointing us his way!

We also welcome Bat-Cousin Jim Beard to the reunion, published author and Bat-Expert on anything and everything regarding the Dynamic Duo!  Jim recently concluded his 3-volume treatise on the Batman TV show, and you can see those books here!

And make sure to listen to the feedback section for a story about a real-life bat in our real-life family!

This month, Bat-Cousin Paul Wildenberger brings his spicy salsa to the reunion to talk about Batman Family #14!  A crazy virus melts Batwoman and threatens Batgirl & Robin, but that doesn’t stop the Boy Wonder from another great Batarang trick! Meanwhile Man-Bat gets a shock from his neighbor, and we learn a little more about who is knocking on Francine’s door.  All this and more great food and company at this month’s BFR!
