Gotham City gets a visit from... a New Blood?!
The Bruce Wayne Batman has his first team up with the man called Ballistic... and, well... that's about the size of it!

Luck is for losers... but, luck'll beat skill any day!
In today's episode we're checking in with a Professor called Arwin, who no longer believes in Darwin... and is looking to prove his own theory using the Caped Crusader as his test subject! Lots of interesting food for thought... and, as has become a trend... plenty of callbacks to bits 'n bobs from that New York Magazine article!
Plus: The return of the NMaiLbag, featuring a discussion of comic book annuals, that is as fun as it is frustrating!

Back to the flagship for a (relatively) quiet issue, where we check in on the man behind the mask(s), Bruce Wayne, to see how he's handling the Aftershock Era. We get a bit of tacked-on action, but this is mostly (thankfully) a character piece!

Checking in with the Boy Wonder for a nice, quiet post-crossover issue, the likes of which we just don't get anymore! Get nostalgic for the days before books were relaunched after every event, and we actually got to "take a breath" with our favorite heroes as they adjust to the next phase in their adventures.

NML Crossing, Episode 022 - Batman: Shadow of the Bat #76 (1998)

Keeping up with the Aftershock theme thus far, this issue is another search-and-rescue... with a slight (and sobering) tweak on the formula. What happens when a group of trapped partygoers run out of food?
Plus: A look at the first slew of Cataclysm ratings in Wizard Magazine, and a trip into Flashback Land for a peek Bat-adjacent USENET chatter circa early 1998!
All that plus a dip into the NMaiLbag!

NML Crossing, Episode 021 - Detective Comics #722 (1998)

Another relatively quiet issue in the Aftershock Era, showing the softer side of the GCPD.
But, the real "meat" of today's episode is a deep-dive (perhaps TOO deep a dive) into the 1995 New York Magazine article that inspired the Cataclysm story to become a thing in the first place! It's an eye-opening and sobering account of what could happen should a Gotham-esque earthquake hit Manhattan!
