Episode 143: Does Batman Diversify? (w/ Abigale Heartblam)

BatChat With Matt & Will: A Batman Ranking Podcast

We've all seen the memes and the jokes: Batman's real super power is his wallet. Batman has, historically, been from the moneyed class, and that's how he gets all those wonderful toys. But what happens when Batman doesn't have all that cash? That's what friend of the show, Patreon backer, and financial adviser Abigale Heartbalm wanted to look into in this week's episode. We have a charming Golden Age tale of Batman having to pawn his diamonds, a story where Ra's al Ghul tanks Wayne stock and on of the few stories featuring broke AND amnesiac Bruce from that period at the end of the New 52 we haven't covered. The Batman Goes Broke (Detective Comics V.1 # 105) Return of the Batman (Legends of the Dark Knight V.1 # 13 [Digital # 34-37]) Madhouse (Batman V.2 Annual # 4) Check out our current ranking list at www.comicsxf.com/batchat-rankings/ Thanks to Geri Nonnewitz for our podcast logo Follow the show on Twitter @BatChatComics and support the show on Patreon at www.patreon.com/batchatwithmattandwill
