Batman ’66 #12

/ / Comics

Batman '66 #12Neither Marsha, Queen of Diamonds nor the Minstrel rank high the list of Batman‘s rogues gallery, but that doesn’t stop the latest issue of Batman ’66 from delivering another fun issue. The main story focuses on Marsha’s obsession with locating the world’s largest diamond which just happens to be housed in the Batcave.

Although the villain and her minions break into the Batcave and steal the diamond, writer Jeff Parker works in a reasonable explanation why Martha doesn’t know her exact location or choose to stick around to learn the true identity of the Dynamic Duo. The thread of the time-freezing potion created by Marsha’s witchy Aunt Hilda is less effective, but does make Martha a bit more formidable.

Batman - P.O.V.

In honor of Batman‘s 75th Anniversary we turn out attention back to the Dark Knight’s more memorable moments on the big and small screen with another episode from Batman: The Animated Series. When a bust goes bad three of GCPD’s finest offer their conflicting accounts to Internal Affairs. While Harvey Bullock‘s (Robert Costanzo) account places the blame on Batman (Kevin Conroy) and his support which he believes was late to arrive (although the visuals during his narration don’t quite jibe to that series of events), Renee Montoya (Ingrid Oliu) and rookie officer Wilkes (Robby Benson) offer different versions of events.
