An image of colorful books arranged on a blue background, forming the shape of the number three. These books, aimed at young readers, include titles like Flamer, Borders, Stealing Home, and Draw The Line.

The caped crusader debuted 85 years ago (yesterday). The big celebration isn’t until Batman Day in September, but here’s wishing the dark knight a Happy Birthday! I’ve had the privilege and pleasure of writing stories for over half a dozen Batman titles, and I hope to do more in the future…
That’s what’s up!
