The Road to Episode 100 Part 3 – Bat Flashback – Episode 2 – The “Untold” Legend of the Batman

The road to episode 100 continues with another Bat Flashback!

This particular flashback takes us back all the way to the second episode. Andy and Mike talked about issues 2 and 3 of The Untold Legend of the Batman. Topics include the origins of Robin, the Joker, Batgirl, and Two-Face. We also learn about how this version of Batman became friends with Jim Gordon and how Alfred came to live with Bruce and Dick. There’s even some fun stuff about who was building the Batmobile back in the Bronze Age. For grins, Mike included some audio from the book-on-tape version of this story because, shockingly, there was a book-on-tape version of this story.

Below are the covers and select pages from the comics discussed in this episode.
