avatar Everything Linkara does turns to gold! Excellent review good man!
The Heckler   |2008-12-29 11:33:16
avatar You're quickly taking over the site!

Great review.
Stammer  - Comics Schmomics   |2008-12-29 11:35:45
avatar You don't even need to read comics to like these reviews.
hookman  - Brilliant!   |2008-12-29 11:41:22
avatar At first I wasnt sure about AT4W but now I cant wait for the next video!
Heartbeat  - Great Review, a little advice though   |2008-12-29 11:42:34
While I in no way am saying that downloading the comic is bad, the laptop on
your lap seemed too out of place, couldn't you have just pretended you had the
comic for yout bits on tape? Just a "comic double" or something.
Otherwise great stuff.

avatar he's new and he's whoopin some serious ass.

Linkara rocks
cyclopsfan1  - Another Great Review Linkara   |2008-12-29 12:01:16
avatar You have a serious work ethic with all these updates. I must say me like. Me
like a lot. Keep up the good work and yes silver age was a confusing time. Think
if it was for death of the Stacy's this would probably never would end.

DanManX  - You've gotta love it   |2008-12-29 12:06:15
avatar You've GOTTA love any video that references Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, SNL, and
Hudson Hawk all within several minutes of each other. This would've been good
just if you pointed out the ridiculousness of the comic, but being chock-full of
pop culture references is a huge plus man. Kudos!
Linkara   |2008-12-29 12:06:49
avatar Glad you all like it. ^^ We're coming closer and closer to having all the
videos I've done on the site. I think we're down to about two more before
they're all uploaded. ;D
Mr Dark  - Title   |2008-12-29 12:08:00
avatar Great review.

BTW, you want a bad Manga to review? Read the Mega Man Zero
manga.

Man, it's just like the Adam West Batman, only cheesier, worse and even less
realistic.

I should point out that while the Adam West series gets a lot of the flack for
the image of Batman as campy and lighthearted, it was actually reflecting the
comics at the time, not the other way around. Batman had been like that for
years before the Adam West show.
mwong04  - WOW   |2008-12-29 13:00:04
avatar Batman series are very boring
TheDramaticMonarch   |2008-12-29 13:33:30
avatar I wish I could come up with a witty or creative way to say that you're quickly
becoming one of my very favorite personalities on here but you continue to make
me giggle and smile with every review you put out (and, as I've said before, I'm
not a gigantic comic buff).

Rock on, Linkara!

I kinda want some Bugle chips
now.
Ocegues  - Before you watch this   |2008-12-29 14:04:57
Before you watch this video, take a bottle of vodka poor 6 shot glasses about
75% full rest lemon put them on the table infront of your screen make a deal
with yourself to finish every glass before the video is finished (i recommend to
poor even more shots afterwards ) then watch everything with the Nostalgia
critic, Ask that guy with the glasses and Linkara that would probably be a good
evening for you :-)
CroutonsOfDeath   |2008-12-29 14:22:08
avatar Yay! More Linkara!! You're like some highly addictive drug that I just want
to continuously shoot up (Okay, yeah, I admit that was creepy :'()
norgavue   |2008-12-29 14:29:22
avatar Ouch that hurt. I have been trying to forget those silver age batman comics.
They do hurt a bit, when taken out of the context they had back then. Still any
excuse for a DS9 reference works for me!
Seijimei  - You're A Machine!!   |2008-12-29 15:29:40
avatar Three reviews at once. Amazing!
Altorin   |2008-12-29 15:55:02
I was actually enjoying this story in the sort of way any Silver Age comic can
be enjoyed... that is until the alien.

The second story is reminiscent of the
adam west series, and as such can be forgiven a lot - enough in fact for it to
seem actually half decent.

So if the first story didn't have an alien, and the
bat baby story didn't involve batman retaining his physique as a child, they
would probably not be worth a rant video.

good video though, I look forward to
the next one, right now you're keeping this site afloat for me, so keep'em
coming
Kurvos   |2008-12-29 16:14:02
avatar Where on that link in the end can I find the Bat-baby story? I am terrible at
finding stuffs, sorry... I love your reviews, besides. Makes me both giggle
and laugh.;D

Totalpranny  - Adam West   |2008-12-29 16:30:10
avatar I think all the Adam West TV show was doing was simply portraying Batman for
what the comics were at the time : Pure silly fun.
Totalpranny   |2008-12-29 16:31:20
avatar BTW, I never get tired of the "Ambiguously Gay Duo" running gag (is it a
rule for everyone on this site to use it at least once ?;D NChick has already
used it for He-Man)
orwellianson  - One Word   |2008-12-29 16:59:34
avatar Fantastic!
BabyImplosion   |2008-12-29 17:03:45
avatar another great video by that guy with the glasses! ........ no, not THAT guy, but
THAT guy.

this all sounds like a good plot for batman 3
Shinigami   |2008-12-29 18:37:23
avatar Great review.

Batman as comic book on its campiest. That kinda had that same
thing Adam as West series had. Time when comic books made absolutly no sense at
all.
Jankrist   |2008-12-29 19:51:22
avatar great review Linkara, do some more reviews of old comics
B gal  - Good review   |2008-12-29 19:55:23
And I - whatever number people said to revise the text recaps- revise the text
recaps, espially the bat baby one.
m60462a  - From Forrest Linkara   |2008-12-29 19:58:59
"Your a goddamn genius Linkara.. They should make you a major general!"
;D

I'm really liking your style dude.
arctifox   |2008-12-29 20:04:35
Though I have never read any comic books (only some mangas), I want to say thank
you, Linkara, for your videos, and for keeping entartaining us during this dead
holiday season, while all the other reviewers have stopped their activity.
