Preview: BATMAN ’66 MEETS THE GREEN HORNET Ch. 9 – The Caped Crusader’s Sticky Situation

Holy canoli! Batman and Robin are in a sticky situation in this preview of Batman ’66 Meets the Green Hornet, chapter 9. While Kato and the Green Hornet race to unravel General Gumm and Joker’s latest plot, the Dyanmic Duo are in danger of becoming pressed by pasta works in this DC Comics/Dynamite crossover.

Why can’t superheroes just meet and get along? That’s the problem at the core of this issue by co-writers Kevin Smith and Ralph Garman, which sees the Green Hornet and Kato trying to hunt down the Joker after Bats and Robin jumped the gun on an elaborate tracking plot involving some dummied-up coins. And that’s how you end up getting turned into a stamp in the middle of a pasta factory (it’s complicated).

For those of you unfamiliar with the character, General Gumm is Smith and Garman’s twist on the live-action Batman villain Colonel Gumm, a pink-clad crook who was obsessed with cash and stamps. He was the villain in the TV crossover between the Green Hornet and Batman.

Ty Templeton is on art with Alex Ross providing covers. And if there’s not a sweet drag race between the Green Hornet’s ride and Batman’s, then this book is sorely missing out.

Batman ’66 Meets the Green Hornet, chapter 9 will be available via DC Comics App, Readdcentertainment.com, iBooks, comiXology.com, Google Play, Kindle Store, and Nook Store.

    Chapter 9? I thought it was a 6 book series.

      It is a six series book in the actual comic book format. However when the books are released digitally, each book is cut in half so that is why it says chapter nine. If what I said made any sense at all.
