I am interviewed in this edition of the Scarred for Life podcast. I discuss media which gave me nightmares as a child – including this issue of Batman, a BBC radio HG Wells serial and the Macra on Doctor Who.

Posted by William K | December 6, 2025, 1:43 amP.S. agreed George Barris ‘Batmobile’ best. ’40s comic book version splendid (with crime-lab in tail), 1989 Anton Furst model magnificent. Must be said.
