I'll be a guest at this weekend's upcoming
NJ Comic Expo and Batvention, celebrating the 45th anniversary of the Batman TV show at the Teaneck Armory, Teaneck NJ, November 12 - 13.
Also appearing are a beevy of fabulous femmes from the
Batman TV show, including Catwoman
Lee Meriwether,
Terry Moore,
Sherry Jackson,
Donna Loren, and others. And if that weren't cool enough, the Batmobile and Batcopter will be on display, and Saturday night the convention hosts a
screening of the 1966 Batman movie, with Ms. Meriwether appearing to share her memories of working on that film.
On the comics side, guests include legendary Golden Age and
Dondi artist, the delightful
Irwin Hasen, DC VP and art director, the equally fabulous and delightful
Mark Chiarello, writer Danny Fingeroth (not so fabulous, but delightful nonetheless), artists
Mark McKenna and
Bob Wiacek, former DC writer and production manager, the legendarily fabulous
Bob Rozakis,
Joel Eisner (author of
The Official Batman Batbook), and my pal
Jim Beard, with whom I'll be appearing on a panel discussing
Gotham City 14 Miles, the Sequential Arts book about the
Batman TV show to which I contributed an essay.
I'll have a table so I'll be on hand both days to say hi, talk, sign, whatever. Hope to see you there!
