Then And Now of Comics is a semi-regular show about comic books, and the history of titles. One part history lesson about a given title, two parts of reviewing the very first issue of a title and then the latest #1 in that title and then coming up with some conclusion. Think of it as an Old Versus New, except it's not a versus! Yes, that does mean sometimes it gets convoluted.

    Batman #1 (1940/2016)
    Sep 4 2025
    Batman is over 80 years old as a character. He just got a new movie, and it's about time I, the Comic Archivist, finally dipped his toe in talking about the massive brand that is Batman, namely his very first solo title, and then the first of his latest title... which is still over 5 years ago. Well this should be fun. Long too.

    It may have been a while since I've done one of these but hey, gotta love it and I always love Werewolf By Night (now a hit special on Disney+). And hey, I get to show how I am when I don't like the writing on a comic in this too. Yes, this means it's another episode where it's not polarizing enough to be for any specific camp. Sorry.

    Then or now, Superman was a pretty super man. Fighting coal barons, domestic violence, wars for profiteering purposes and even collegic football! He's truly the man of tomorrow... today!
