Batman Doc Savage Special
Written by Brian Azzarello
Illustrated by Phil Noto
Published by DC Comics
I am a fan and writer of pulp fiction. That’s pulp fiction in lowercase letters. Not the movie, although I like that too. If you frequent my website you’ll see my influences and my love of the stories that predate comic books, which is why I had mixed feelings about this comic. It’s published by DC Comics, which means it will have some bigger backing than other companies publishing the same content. It’s written by a guy who knows his crime: Brian Azzarello, who wrote 100 Bullets. But in recent interviews he’s talked about changes. Was he just pulling our leg for fun? I put this up for discussion on the Pulp Tone Facebook page, and pulp fans were not happy.
