Batman (Robert Lowery) and Robin (Johnny Duncan) confer with Police Commissioner Jim Gordon in the serial New Adventures of Batman and Robin (1949), more commonly known as just Batman and Robin.
The next year Talbot would don a rubber bald wig to portray the villainous Lex Luthor in the serial Atom Man vs. Superman (1950).
for a song vs song: “Last Train to San Fernando” vs “Freight Train,” specifically the versions from Asteroid City. They are poppy country rockabilly and I want to find out what you guys prefer
Which is the better song from Asteroid City?
Last Train to San Fernando by Johnny Duncan and the Blue Grass Boys
Freight Train by Nancy Whiskey and Chas. McDevitt Skiffle Group

Lyle Talbot as Commissioner Gordon with Robin (Johnny Duncan) and Batman (Robert Lowery) in Columbia’s 1949 movie serial, BATMAN AND ROBIN.
Amazes me how some DC fans, especially those of Nightwing/Dick Grayson don’t realize there’s already been 7 actors who’ve played a version of him in live-action projects. LOL I was replying to a fan on Twitter as they were talking about the Dylan O’Brien leaks that he’s been cast as the main DCEU’s version. The first actors to play Dick Grayson was in the 1940s serials with both Douglas Croft and Johnny Duncan. Then Burt Ward in the 1960s “Batman” show. Then Chris O’Donnell in both “Batman Forever” and “Batman and Robin”. I count Joseph Gordon Levitt in “The Dark Knight Rises” as his character Robin John Blake was partly based off Dick including having the same middle name John. Then Brenton Thwaites currently plays him on “Titans”. The CW’s new show “Gotham Knights” is also doing a mash up character with Turner Hayes played by Oscar Morgan. Then the main DCEU’s will be the 8th actor (still hearing it’s Dylan and hopefully we’ll have confirmation soon either at Fandome or when the “Batgirl” movie is out, also there might be a younger teen actor in flashbacks too) and the 9th will be in Matt Reeves’ movies. It’s not as many as the Batman actors but it’s getting close.
Rockin' Robinz Round Robin Review The year that the Octogintennial of Robin was celebrated happened in a rather interesting year. 2020 has been a memorable year mainly in part of the self-imposed quarantined for the better part of three-quarters of the year. Regardless, I celebrated the Oaken Jubilee of Robin in the follow ways:

Robin Themed Posts
My final manner is more low-key as I tried to find all incidence of live-action Robin, Robin analogues, or Robin inspired characters and celebrate their birthdays along with their comic book counterparts. I managed to find thirty-eight unique birthdays done in forty-eight posts. Sources of these posts ranged from comic books, films (official and unofficial), television, web-series, musical, stage production, publication, and a pornographic parody. I'm sure there is more and I would be honored if my followers could list those that I missed. The Round of Robins
