 Like many fans, I was excited for the Batman Caped Crusader show as it was the first animated Batman show in several years and from the mind of Bruce Timm, who was one of the geniuses behind Batman: The Animated Series . Reviews have been mixed, with some people loving it while others hated it.

I liked Copycat disguising himself as a character resembling Bluto from Popeye. Earth Alpha Richard Fame really resembles Adam West and I tried to imitate his voice as I read it aloud.  Issue 3 was really interesting...
