Following the success of our Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Season 2 Retro Rewind season, this week we sit down with academic scholar and author of the newly released book, Interpreting and Transmitting Kynicism in Joker: The Dark Side of Film Fandom (Lexington Books, 2024). In a twist of fate, Joker's author is none other than guest host and friend-of-the-pod, Dr. Kyle Hammonds. In this interview, we provide an objective platform to discuss Kyle's book and the origins of his ideas and its focus. The conversation helps advance our season-long focus on recognizing deeper values embedded within popular artifacts like superhero comic books, films, and other kinds of transmedia experiences. Stay tuned til the end for information on how to obtain a discounted copy of this philosophical examination of the popularity tethered to Batman's most iconic arch nemesis.
