The Return of ‘Batman Returns’

Much like it was on the tenth anniversary of The Dark Knight, it’s also the 25th anniversary of Batman Returns! Give or take a year that is. It’s a movie I’ve definitely seen enough to know by heart, but not one that I really have ever given great thought to, at least enough to analyze in-depth in an article or essay. It’s just kind of always been about Tim Burton’s gothic wankery, to my mind. But I found a really cool analysis on Reddit that made me look at it from another angle. I don’t think Tim gave it one iota of this level of thought, and mainly just made choices out of instinct or from the hip based on whatever felt right to him at the time; but nonetheless, check it out here, then come back for my thoughts!

Stan has been put under a court ordered conservatorship that removes his alleged abuser Keya Morgan from his life. A more official restraining order has been placed to keep Keya away from Stan. Of note is that the lawyer who drafted the statement is the ORIGINAL lawyer, who prepared the suit in February alleging wrongdoing against Keya, the Daughter, and the dude who literally bled Stan dry for autographs.

Hi-Diddly-Ho Neighborinos

Welcome to my site, Comic Genre! I am Brent Andrew, wannabe hipster doofus, one of those Millennials you hate so much. As the title implies, I’ll be talking about comics, and general genre stuff. This is a catch-all that allows me to include movies, tv, pop culture and whatever might be interesting, as opposed to limiting it to just comics. Although that will be the focus (for now).

I hope to have an in-depth article up every week, as well as several smaller posts detailing quick reviews, news, or goings-on in nerd culture. When I say in-depth, I mean it; although it is not my pretension to be the New Yorker, I want to try give a thorough analysis to any given topic in a true journalistic style, and I want to have the best presentation and integrity. So if ever my facts are wrong or you see something not properly cited, please feel free to reach out to me at and give a holler.

That’s about it! Keep a look out for the first article soon, and tell your friends. Although this site is mainly to write and talk about things that interest me, I always appreciate when anybody gives something a read. Peace out and check back often!
