Mike Burdge and Tim Irwin start off a new Overdrinkers mini-series covering the comic book adaptations of the 90s that were directly inspired by the tone and success of Batman (1989). First up, it’s Sam Rami’s notoriously awesome, Darkman (1990), Warren Beatty’s batshit bananas Dick Tracy (1990) and Joe Johnston’s inarguably fun, The Rocketeer (1991). Along the way, they discuss the changes in comic book and superhero adaptation fare, as well as the successes and failures of the genre over the past 30+ years. Listen on….
