I didn't even notice the writing on the bottom of the picture when I copied it from the page I found it on. I'll change it.

Stunning, maddening that superhero comics would be blamed for youth crimes, to hearings in Congress and that Catwoman couldn't appear in comics for over a decade.

It's signed by Lee Meriwether (Catwoman) and Lyle Waggoner (one of the finalists for the role of Batman).

Recently I watched Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders and Batman vs. Two-Face. Some of the most fun I've had for ages. Took me back to being a kid and wearing out my copy of the '66 movie. I also thought Shatner was pitch perfect as Harvey Dent/Two-Face. I've seen some people say they would have preferred Clint Eastwood, given he was cast for it at the time, but speaking as a huge Eastwood fan, I think he would have lent much too far into the darkness of the character for the '60s series. Shatner was inspired and the right way to go, imo.

i still need to watch those two animated movies, but if i can imagine a live action 1966 harvey dent/ two-face, then william shatner is perfect.

They're both definately worth it....a real continuation of the series.

Has anyone see a movie called "Skiddo"?
Frank, Cesar, and Burgress are all in it. Have no idea how big their parts are.
Or if they are in any scenes together.

 

[C. Lee]

From the way it reds on it's IMDB page, it sounds like an episodic film where the main character roams around meeting different people. So I would think they probably don't have any scenes together.
