I never imagined two years ago when starting out I'd get to meet a fantastic group of people through one of my creations and passions in life. I've known Gary for nearly as long and its a pleasure to call him a friend, especially for all his help over the years.

Aww, shucks! It's been great knowing you too, Bob. Hopefully I'll make it across the pond one day and we'll finally meet in the real world haha.

I got a little lost from reading...

it was a joke, if you watched the timeless classic and critically lauded as the best picture of the year in 1997 entitled Batman and Robin.

Ahhh Yes! You've hit the metaphorical nail on the metaphorical head, metaphorically speaking in a metaphoric sense!

Dane...you are so full of win right now man, it's not even possible...metaphorically or otherwise.

-Gary

P.S. Don't tell anyone I have a soft spot in my heart for Batman & Robin.

Awww Gary I didn't know you had such great taste in films! Oh yeah and as for my Batman & Robin avatar, I have never been thrown against a giant ice cream cone but I'm absolutely positive I wouldnt make that face.

Haha I like Batman and Robin in the same way I love B Movies...it's fun to watch and laugh at how freakin' silly it is.

And Dane, I don't know HOW you'd look if thrown against an ice cream cone...but I do know one thing.

You like Batman.

hahaha

Is it a tad bit bad that after I listened to podcast #47, all I walked away with was him saying "I'm Dane and I like Batman."? Haha.

Not at all...because it's a fact. Although, we really have to shut up and let Dane talk more, I feel kinda bad that that's basically all he got to say haha.

I guess you could label him as comic relief. Ha.

Hey, guys.

The name for this site here is Jay Kay. I'm 22 years old, living in Arizona. I'm a college student, currently learning about computer programming and web design, but my real passion is in writing and in art. Obviously I'm a bit of a fan of the Batman characters, being on this site and all. I first started when I was around...12, I think, when I found Dark Knight Returns at my local Borders, and I've been an addict ever since.

So...yeah. I think that about covers it. Any other questions, just ask.

Well, nice to officially meet you Jay Kay! Again, welcome to Gotham Knights Online, we're glad to have you in our little community.

That's an interesting introduction to Batman comics, The Dark Knight Returns. I love that book, but I don't think I found it until high school. It's a pretty mature book, in my opinion, so kudos to you for reading and comprehending it at 12!

Have you had the chance to do anything with Batman for a class project with your computer stuff? I know I would haha.

Yeah, needless to say my mind was kinda blown after reading it.

And actually yes, I did--for one of my html classes, I created my own little mini Batman site.

Me too! Well, probably nothing compared to their level of professionalism you produced, but in my Computing in the Modern World (My school is a bit... lost in time.), we were learning how to use Adobe Dreamweaver, so I dedicated my site to the legacy of Batgirls! c:

And welcome to GKO! c: Happiest littlest piece of heaven you will find on earth!

Nice to meet you Jay Kay. You're going to love posting on the forums here!

Oh, mine was hardly professional, I'm sure. It was using the most basic forms of HTML. And the class I learned my HTML stuff also had a focus on "introduction to the world wide web," so it's kind of a dinosaur in that sense, too--though it's community college, so a lot of the people there are in their 30s/40s trying to get a new career but have to get their children to turn on the computer for them.

I had to take some courses at my local CC over the summer...isn't it funny how it's EXACTLY like that show Community? If you've never seen it, as a community college student you REALLY should. It's hilarious....
