Batman was on citv when I watched it, at least until I was about 13 which is the age you should stop watching cartoons and put away childish things.

I remember watching Phantom 2040 as a kid, the only superhero I can think of who hasn't reappeared in movies etc as the years passed. e: Google tells me he belonged to some syndicated publishing house instead of either Marvel or DC which I guess explains it. kecske fucked around with this message at 10:00 on Jul 20, 2023 |

Huh, no idea how I missed that then if it was on ITV. I was just wondering coz it seems like a common shared experience for a lot of Goons and I totally missed it. So just assumed it wasn't on council telly

DC have been publishing a sorta continuation of the series lately and it's been mostly pretty fun. They've split the volumes into "seasons" so it's not too difficult to follow either. Only odd thing is they've incorporated a bunch of more modern concepts and characters which feels a bit at odds sometimes.

Because I think I might get obsessed with the aesthetic style of Batman: The Animated Series now that I've actually seen more than stills for the first time. Coz what the gently caress possessed someone to make a cartoon in the early '90s that feels like it was set in the 1930s? I dunno, but it's cool they did & that it seemed to pay off.

The first two volumes have a pretty similar aesthetic. I felt as if it could be pushed a little more but I was content with it.  Unfortunately they seem to have made a shift in art direction for Season 3 (currently ongoing). Not as big of a fan of this and I'd probably drop the comic if I wasn't personally interested in it. The comic also has the advantage of having Paul Dini involved in it. I don't think he does much except guide the broad strokes but it makes it feel a little more like an actual continuation.

Kevin Conroy is the Batman voice I hear in my head whenever I read a Batman thing, it’s just as iconic as Hamill’s Joker.

And sadly for those who love Adam West's Batman I mostly only know him from his brief appearances on Family Guy, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJMl5AXTKLk (For those unsure, Adam West plays a fictional insane version of himself as the mayor of the town.)

ahahah, remember how I was complaining BBC news puts pretty women next to every horrible or unrelated story to get you to click well of course that's targeted at me because i must click on stories with women in the pic more often. i noticed the current news story photo was different for a split second and then went into private browsing and sure enough, on the cookieless version there's a man in the photo of this story about supermarket prices. in my version there's some woman. gently caress the internet man.

Posting here because this thread is always full of useful knowledge. Does anyone have experience or opinions on external wall insulation? We are mid terrace with solid walls. I’m not keen on going the internal route due to loss of space and needing to move sockets/radiators. Not sure if it’s worth the cost in terms of savings on heating bills, but is there an intangible comfort factor? Are there any issues with damp etc that could be introduced?

On another comic related note, Conroy had his own comic in DCs Pride anthology in 2022 about his struggles as a gay voice actor in the 90s. I'm not sure if it was published after his passing but I did read it after and it did make me emotional as a gay person who grew up loving the series. You can find it online and it is well worth a read.

The top story on BBC news about shopping is a woman for me on normal browser or incognito. I wouldn't say she was particularly attractive or a model or whatever, just a normal lady perusing

The one that springs to mind is a show called Biohackers. On Mrs Radcliffe's profile the thumbnail was an ominous green with a biohazard symbol and the protagonist looking fearful. On mine it was a topless blonde covering her boobs with her arms - from a scene that lasts about 3 seconds and is the only thing close to being sexually explicit in the entire show.
