		<itunes:summary>I had a great time appearing with the Earth Station One podcast gang on Episode 73, part 2 (http://erthstationone.wordpress.com/2011/08/18/earth-station-one-episode-73-batman-pt-2/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+ErthStationOnePodcast+%28The+Earth+Station+One+Podcast%29) where they discussed all things related to Batman. As most of you know, the Golden Age Batman has always been my favorite, so I simply could not pass up the opportunity to discuss the character, his origins and many other aspects of his Golden Age incarnation. I had a lot of fun on the show and look forward to the next time they want to delve into the Golden Age of comic books!  You&#039;ll be able to play this episode of the ESO podcast by selecting the play button below.  Thanks again to the guys at the Earth Station One Podcast for having me on the show.
