Shawn and Paul shut down Gabriel’s Horn and the Wayne Family Gardens, but come join us for the last hurrah! We talk about our favorites from our 3-year Reunion party and hear about what you Bat-Cousins had to say about yours!

We are also bowing to listener demand, and announce the subject of our next show, coming later in 2025.

Thank you all for your support and for helping clean up after the raucous guests at the Reunion. We love our Bat-Cousins!

Paul and Shawn

In this penultimate episode, Shawn and Paul cover the last issue of the Dollar Detective Starring the Batman Family!  But we are not quite done! For our finale next month, we are going to do a retrospective of the entire series.  And for that, we want as much Bat-Cousin participation as possible!  So, we want YOU all to write to us (by November 20, 2024) and tell us your:

• Favorite All-New Story (other than #13 if that is your favorite)
• Favorite Reprint Story
• Favorite Writer
• Favorite Artist
• Favorite Cover
• Favorite Bat-Family History Segment
• Any other favorite item – food, Gabriel’s Horn item, ad, etc.

You can give us your answer to one or all 7 of those categories, and any other general comments you want to make.  Don’t forget to make comments on #495 as you would normally do as well.

We will incorporate as many of your comments as we can into our big finale next month!  Please leave your answer here on the website or email us at batmanfamilyreunion@gmail.com.  But please send in your answers and comments no later than WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 20.

Thanks for your support of the show and we look forward to everyone’s answers!

The tradition after every two issues: We revisit issue 11 of the Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe Deluxe AND Vol.3 of Who’s Who to look at the different fashions some of these characters have worn over the years. Which have been redeemed or condemned? So pour yourself a finger of the good stuff, plop an orange peel and a cherry into it and give the Hot Squad a listen!

Featuring permanent panelists Elyse, Isabel, Nathalie, Josée, Shotgun, and Amelie.

Let’s all give a big Bat Family welcome to the entertainment at this month’s Reunion – our favorite Bat-DJ Matthew Davis!  In his podcast debut, Matthew talks with Shawn and Paul about Detective Comics #491, where we get a lot of basketball, a dark turn in Batgirl’s story, and Jason Bard!  Oh, and Maxie Zeus – can’t win ‘em all, I guess.  Enjoy some cold cuts and lemonade!
