OK, Batman Comic Book Fans from the late 80's & early 90's will totally remember the artwork of Norm Breyfogle. He drew the character from 1987 to 1993. Well, DC Comics is bringing him back for a one-shot called "DC RETROACTIVE: BATMAN, The 90's". Now, don't look for it real soon, it doesn't hit the shops until August 17th, ha! But it should be pretty cool & well worth the wait because they're also bringing back the same Writer from that period, Alan Grant! Both Norm & Alan will revisit a pair of villains closely associated with their original run on The Caped Crusader: The Ventriloquist and Scarface! Released on a technicality one year after being arrested, this bizarre duo is determined to reclaim their status in the upper echelon of Batman’s Rogues Gallery. This “lost tale” of the era spins directly out of DETECTIVE COMICS #613, reprinted in this issue!
This Wednesday, March 10th, be sure to tune-in to the WHERE MONSTERS DWELL Podcast to hear an interview with the Famous Batman Comic Book Artist NORM BREYFOGLE. He's a total bat-fan favorite so it should be very cool! This will be Episode #91 that you can listen to LIVE on Wed or after that it will be posted so you can hear to it at anytime. Oh yeah, almost forgot, here's the link right HERE!
The Legendary BATMAN Comic Book Artist NORM BREYFOGLE will be a Special Guest at the NORTH EAST COMIC CON in Boston, Massachusetts on March 7th, 2010. So, if you live nearby, then this is your chance to meet him & maybe get a drawing or sketch of the Dark Knight. Now, another reason I mention this Boston Comic Book Convention is that they will also be giving away, as a door prize, an Original 1940's Golden Age Copy of BATMAN #1!! WOW! That would be extremely cool to win! I mean, I have wanted that iconic issue since I was about 12 years old, ha ha! For more information about this show be sure to visit their site by clicking HERE!
Anyone who collected or grew-up with the Batman Comic Books of the 1980's and 90's will instantly recognize this artwork done by Norm Breyfogle. In fact, he's really famous for his version of the Batmobile Car that you can see in this picture. This is a commissioned piece done recently by him ( Please click on the above image for a larger, more detailed, picture ). I love the fact that it has the Ventriloquist & Scarface Villains, way cool! But, unfortunately, he won't be doing anymore bat-sketches for awhile because he is seriously way too busy with his new job. He will be drawing not one, but two, Archie Comics in the near future. Well, not 2 issues, but 2 complete titles...every month. The workload will be totally crazy! But you also know he's gonna do a very good job & I can't wait to see it.
I want to congratulate our friends who run the CLUB BATMAN Fan Club in Spain. This year is their 20th Anniversary! To mark the special occasion they received some special artwork by Norm Breyfogle. Of course he was one of the major Batman comic book artists of the 1980's & 90's. He was kind enough to allow them to use some of his art for their promotion. Congrats CLUB BATMAN...and here's to 20 more years!! One last thing, if you live in that area of the world & would like to join the club then please be sure to visit their website by clicking HERE!
