Shortbox Showcase #014

Feedback, Follow-ups and Detective Comics #27.

We reply to some email feedback, and Emily follows up on our discussion last episode by telling us all about her recent Ohayacon experience. Then we begin our Batman year (actually, Bat-Man year for now) by turning to where it all started, his first appearance way back in 1939, in Detective Comics #27. Except back then he was called "The Bat-Man."
