The Dude’s High 5s: Top 5 Most Important Comic Adaptations
In celebration of me attending my first ever Comic Con this weekend, I figured I may as well tie my High 5 into the category of comics. Problem is, I’m a comic lackey. I’m not out there discovering new comics; I’m not hip to the indy artists or things that have buzz. When it comes to comics, I do what I’m told. Oh I have to read Preacher, ok. Oh, Planetary is awesome? Sure I’ll read it. I have to read Watchmen and Dark Knight Returns, ok, I’ll buy them. So then how do I connect my shitty poser comic geek self to the world of the REAL comic geeks? Through movies of course!
What I have here are my top 5 important comic movies. Don’t agree? Then come and argue the point with me at Boston Comicon. I’ll be at the 5 & Dime Table both days.
Cosplay: Catwoman Is Always A LATEX DREAM

Oh shit! Catwoman all decked out in latex is never, ever, going to get old to me. Regardless of quality of cosplay at head, it’s still. Still going to tug at the loins.
Dude Taste-Tests 22 YEAR-OLD BATMAN CEREAL. Hats Off, My Friend.
…So I’m not really certain of the gender of Food junk, though I do liberally apply the term “dude” to peoples of all genders, genitals, and combinations of both. What I am certain of is that Food Junk is a blog-person carved out of the same insanity as me. Taste-testing a 22 year-old cereal? Tremendous.
Video: Every Bat-Climb Window Cameo From ‘BATMAN 66’ In One Place. Holy Climbing, Rat Guy.
Back in the day, Batman and Robin climbed the shit out of buildings. Just a nice piece of rope between their thighs, relying upon the closeness of one another to ensure they climbed successfully. The gentle touch of Batman upon the small of Robin’s back. Whispering: we can make it. Woah! What happened. Anyways. They loved the shit out of climbing, and here in one place is every cameo from their climbing.
Kid Gets BATMAN Shaved Into Head. I Only Got Sports Numbers.
When I was a little kid, getting your sports number shaved into your little skull-piece was the hotness. I clearly didn’t have things figured out like this young lad. Courtesy of Radames Perez, he has the Dark Knight himself straight-up buzzed into his dome.
Brazilian City Authorizes 50 Year-Old BATMAN To Protect Its Citizens. No, Srsly
Ain’t this some Batman Inc shit right here. A Brazilian city has authorized some old motherfucker to walk around as Batman. Fighting crime. Stopping murders. Breaking up drug rings. I’m not even kidding.

DC Reveals Designs for Batman and Robin of ‘Earth Two’, They Ain’t Ass.
I haven’t dedicated much brain power to thinking about DC’s upcoming Earth Two. The seeming flagship title of the company’s “second wave” of New 52 titles. Just hasn’t really interested me. That is, until I caught this info and peeped the designs. Not IMAGE EXPO level of the excite!, but it could be pretty jazzy.

Video: Batman Screams At Strangers In Toronto. Wayne Needs Help.
Some dude dressed as Batman skulked around Toronto busting out requisite Batman-isms like “Where are they?!” both amusing and scaring the shit out of passersby. It’s fucking awesome. Also worth noting: if this site ever becomes a viable life option (it won’t), expect me doing this all the fucking time.
