Batman By The Numbers: Review - Batman: Doom that Came to Gotham

There’s arguably no superhero in existence that has been
reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman. 
No matter how many times he’s been rebooted, audiences are always
willing to come back to Gotham City’s greatest defender. 
With so much Bat content out there, there’s plenty to dissect,
analyze, and of course, rank!  This podcast is dedicated to
a surgical evaluation of Batman’s history, with a focus on
ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other
classic Bat themes and characters.


Join host Daniel Cohen, Pop Break’s former Film Editor and
Resident Bat-Maven, as he brings on several guests every month to
share his passion for the one and only Dark Knight. 
From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left
unturned.  Bottom-line: If you’re a Batman fan, this is
required listening.


Batman fighting demons, spirits, sorcery, and monsters?  Oh
my!  It happened.  The Batman by the Numbers Podcast
goes into uncharted waters this month.  While Batman movies
are typically relegated to grounded, gritty crime dramas, there
are comics where Batman ventures into the supernatural, and even
horror.  As a great man once said, “You want to get
nuts!  Let’s get nuts!”  That’s what Batman: The Doom
that Came to Gotham is, the new animated movie from DC.Daniel
calls upon the spirit world to summon Podcast Editor Alex Marcus
and Pop Break contributor Tom Moore, making his Batman by the
Numbers debut, to help him decipher this very odd, weird Batman
movie adapted from the Elseworlds comic of the same name that
takes place in the 1920s.


They debate whether or not the premise holds strong, how well
classic Batman villains are interwoven into the story, discuss
the viability of the Batman character being placed in the horror
genre, and stack it up to other DC animated movies.


If you’re interested in a Batman story that takes place in the
1920s with a diversion to Antarctica with Batman fighting demons
from another world, then this is the Batman movie you’ve been
waiting for!
