So I was just watching a video on youtube where a guy looks at various designs of Batman’s costume, and explaining why certain versions of the suit make sense for the project it appears in.

And as part of his B-Roll, he pans over a shot of comic books. One of them has Batman in a very Batman generic pose. On a rooftop, just looking into the distance. That pose.

But the thing that caught my eye, is it also said “Writer - Kevin Smith”.

Whaaa? Holupaminute. Is this a case of just two people unrelated having the same name? Or are you telling me that the guy who directed Clerks is now a writer for legit DC Batman comic books???

    If you haven’t seen Chasing Amy, it’s a Kevin Smith movie where his involvement in comics comes across. The main characters write comics. Stan Lee even cameos.

      you’re thinking Mallrats, Stan Lee has a cameo in Mallrats when he talks to Brodie about love and Brodie just wants to talk about super hero dicks.

          if you can I would HIGHLY suggest watching Mallrats with the original DVD commentary. Kevin Smith, Jason Lee, a hungover sounding Ben Affleck, and a high Jason Mewes. It’s awesome and hilarious. It’s pretty much just all of them, especially affleck, just ripping the film. it’s hilarious.
