This week, Michael Bradley and Michael Kaiser take a break from their normal monthly coverage format to look back at their first completed year, going over the pros and cons, the ups and downs, the lefts and rights of all the Batman material released in 1940. And at the end of the show, the two give their votes for the bests and worsts of the year!

Michael Bradley and Michael Kaiser tackle part 2 of December 1940, and wrap up another year in the process! This time Batman investigates "The Secret Cavern" when he takes on criminals with an overly convoluted scheme to rob a gold vault in Kentucky in Detective Comics #48.

The Batman's crusade on crime must be going pretty good because, this time out, he tackles a new problem: Family relations! Michael K. and Michael B. take a look at DETECTIVE COMICS #47 where the Dark Knight tries to teach parents the valuable lesson that money can't buy happiness!

The two Michaels move forward in their quest to cover all things Batman by taking a look at his adventures in November of 1940, which is back to one book, DETECTIVE COMICS #46, where Batman and Robin face the return of a thought-dead villain, Hugo Strange, who tries to infect their city with a deadly fear toxin in the case of "Professor Strange's Fear Dust."

That felonious female fiend, the Cat, returns to vex the Dynamic Duo as Michael K. and Michael B. put the finishing touches on their look at BATMAN #3.

Michael B. and Michael K. continue their coverage of BATMAN #3, as Batman and Robin take on the seedy underbelly of a criminal organization composed of...children? That's right, it's their most juvenile adventure yet as the Dynamic Duo tackle the case of "The Crime School for Boys!

Michael K. and Michael B. continue their coverage of BATMAN #3, which finds the Batman falling head-first into action and mystery when a strange plague newspapers dub "the Ghastly Change" pours over the city. The Dynamic Duo of the Batman and Robin must them go into action and confront the crafty brain behind the sinister sickness: "The Ugliest Man in the World!"

Michael B. and Michael K. continue their coverage of Batman material released in October of 1940, this time taking a look at the first story from BATMAN #3, where the Caped Crusader finds his strings being pulled as he is manipulated and mind controlled in "The Strange Case of the Diabolical Puppet Master!"

The show is back and, with this episode, so is the awesome! Michael K. and Michael B. look at the Batman story from DETECTIVE COMICS #45, which features an old school (mostly solo) Batman story that finds the Dark Knight taking on the returning menace of that Harlequin of Hate the Joker as he tries to solve "The Case of the Laughing Death!"

"Guess who just got back today... them wild-eyed boys that had been away. Haven't changed, haven't much to say. But man, I still think them cats are crazy." That's right, folks! Michael Kaiser and Michael Bradley are back with a brand new episode! After catching up on why they left, where they've been and all the news that's happened in the interim, the guys dive into DETECTIVE COMICS #44, which find the Batman and Robin crossing paths with giants and elves as they enter "The Land Behind the Light!"
