Episode 120: The Wedding That Didn't Happen (w/ Abigale Heartbalm)

BatChat With Matt & Will: A Batman Ranking Podcast

At 120 episodes, we've covered a lot of Batman comics. A lot. But I think few have been more contentious, both in the fandom and on this podcast, as the ones this week. Because this week we're talking about the Tom King run, the creator with possibly the biggest gaps in his work on The Big Board, and specifically the stories around the not-wedding of Batman and Catwoman. We see the proposal, with Tom King's formalist tricks, some one-shots not by King that really don't do much, and the issues leading up to the wedding, which contain some of the heights, and the nadir, of King's run. All while joined by return guest, and Will's better half, Abigale Heartbalm. Every Epilogue is a Prelude (Batman V.3 # 24) Batman: Prelude to the Wedding # 1-5 The Wedding (Batman V.3 # 44-50, DC Nation # 0) Check out our current ranking list at www.comicsxf.com/batchat-rankings/ Thanks to Geri Nonnewitz for our podcast logo Follow the show on Twitter @BatChatComics and support the show on Patreon at www.patreon.com/batchatwithmattandwill
