"To The Bat... Serial"

One of my all time favorite super heroes is Batman.  I followed his exploits in D. C.'s many comics, including Detective, Brave & Bold, etc., and relished the camp of the TV series with Adam West & Burt Ward and the many great actors turned villains for that show.  I slowed in my enthusiasm for the movies, which hit or missed with me.  But I still love the old comics.  So, I was delighted to find that the Golden Age of Comic Book Stories, at thins link, posted some of the Sunday Batman Comic strips from years ago. If you like Batman, take a look.

Creative Stirrings

Some creative stirrings hither and yon:


1)  I have posted this link before, but cannot recommend enough the diversity of illustration and art contained at this blog.


2)  The Journalizer's blog "Journalize This" raises numerous avenues of thought, expression and dare I say "concern" with her recent post here.  Now what is that metallic ball that has a sponge-like substance within it?  Imaginative, inquiring minds want to know... among other things.


3)  RPG Theory Comprehensive Link.  Some interesting articles here which lead to this quote by jrients at the FORGE:  "Roleplaying reconnects us with our ancient need to sit in a circle and tell stories.  More and more, our culture surrenders our storytelling to an elite who deliver stories to us via TV/movies.  For most of humanity's history storytelling was an active endeavor, today it has become passive..."


Very good! I once commented during a video interview at GENCON that RP is a tribal event with the constant exchange of information, everyone gathered about the elder to hear not only stories, but to assimilate information that might not otherwise be gathered or retained.  It was/is entertainment and learning at once, which is the way education should be, so I feel.
