About this episode

Tim and Paul discuss a parody of Batman 66 from Cracked magazine and compare it to other parodies they've covered.

In their years of podcasting about Batman 66, Tim and Paul have covered a number of parodies and ripoffs of the show, from MAD magazine to Batfink . But a listener has informed them of another one, b from the March 1988 issue of Cracked magazine. Even more than a year out from the 1st Michael Keaton Batman movie, interest was running high with still very little known about the film, so cast reunions and flashbacks to the '66 show were numerous. How does this parody stack up with the others we've discussed? Find out by listening to Bat Bits!
