Batman and Robin (1949, Spencer Gordon Bennet)
By Andrew Wickliffe on Apr 21, 2018 From The Stop ButtonBatman and Robin is fifteen chapters; all together, it?s just under four and a half hours. It is not a rewarding four and a half hours. Not at all. Of the fourteen credited actors, one gives a good performance. Don C. Harvey. He gets to be chief henchman for a while. But not even half of the serial.... Read full article

Batman and Robin (1949, Spencer Gordon Bennet), Chapter 12: Robin Rides the Wind
By Andrew Wickliffe on Apr 12, 2018 From The Stop ButtonThe chapter title, Robin Rides the Wind, got me hoping Robin would jump out of a plane or something. Without a chute. Sad spoiler: he doesn?t.

Quotes from
Batman: Harrison's safety. The Wizard must have heard that broadcast - perhaps he even inspired it.
Robin: Harrison's decision really must have knocked the props out from under his blackmail scheme.
Batman: Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. What's to prevent the Wizard from attacking Harrison on his way here?
Robin: Batman and Robin might.
Batman: Run the usual test for invisible ink. I'll change and go entertain Vicki.
Robin: You better be careful. I think she's beginning to get wise that Batman and Bruce Wayne are the same.
Batman: Well, if she gets too close, we know how to throw her off the trail.

If Robert Lowery's Batman costume seems a bit ill-fitting, it's because it was tailored for Kirk Alyn, a bigger man. Alyn starred as Superman in both of Columbia's Superman serials.
