Batman Returns (1992) with Griffin Newman (Blank Check)

Griffin Newman returns! And this time he’s brought with him the Bat, the Cat, the Penguin, and….Shreck?

Yes, we’ve got THE TICK’s Arthur to talk all things superhero movies, performing in costume, transitioning from comedian to action hero, and why there will never be a better Bruce Wayne than Michael Keaton.

Also, we gush about how truly reprehensible and brilliant Danny DeVito is in this film! He stayed in character throughout the entire production! Demented!
