D. J. David B. Spins Comics-Tunes: Batman – Back To Basics

djnew

Batman 75th

Time to dig in to the Comics Tunes mailbag (not a real bag) and read some of our recent made-up emails. This spurious email comes from an AOL address so you know it’s going to be good:

 

Dear D.J. David B.:

You did a great job writing about Catman a couple weeks ago, but what about Batman? Isn’t Batman more popular than Catman?

Signed,

Confused

 

Good point. I’ll get back to Batman this week. Here’s another ersatz email from a total stranger:

 

Dear Dave:

Nice work on the Catman tribute. Any chance of a song about Batman?

Yours truly

Bud

 

Yeah, good idea. And now, another email from a faux fan:

 

Hey, D.J.!

Your blog sucks, dude! It’s terrible. Worst. Blog. Ever. By the way, when are we going to get a Batman song?

Your friend,

Al

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I’ll get right on that if you just give me a minute. We have room for just one more contrived email:

Dear Most Wonderful Person:

I am writing to you from Nigeria where a person with the same surname as you left a big sack of cash on a bus and I wanted to give it to you as soon as you can confirm your identity by giving me your name, address, date of birth and Social Security number.

Thank you so very much.

Doug

 

That’s it for the mailbag. Now a tribute to Batman who turned 75 this year.

Bonus! A groovy Batman video of the same song. Look at those dancing girls go-go-go! Click the picture to see it all.
