Yesterday, I mentioned how awesome it would be if DC/Warner Bros. and HBO hooked up to create a Batman series that was faithful to the letter of the source material. Just imagine, if you will, this sequence from Batman #425 as a live action scene.
I think I sense a new Major Spoilers meme forming:Â Batman vs. HBO, Everyone Wins!
Yeah, I’m gonna keep dreaming until the day I put in charge of those decisions.

He then moved on to consumer technology, and began the Coolness Roundup podcast. A writing fool, Stephen has freelanced for Sci-Fi Channel's Technology Blog, and Gizmodo. Still longing for the good ol' days, Stephen launched Major Spoilers in July 2006, because he is a glutton for punishment.

Showtime + Batman …Even better.
True, but HBO is already owned by Time/Warner, which keeps everything in the family. Then again, Showtime is owned by CBS, which worked with WB to create the CW.
So where does taking the time to unhook a car battery for the express purpose of throwing it at a perp rate on the Bat-Dickishness Scale?
Considering he didn’t take the time to unhook the battery, I’d say his rating is at a low 1 or 2 rating.
Think how much more inspirational that sequence would be had Mike DeCarlo not shat upon it.
@Stephen
You are like the Stephen Hawking of televison :D
The what with the whosits… Wait i think i figured out your lingo…
HBO also run some Showtime shows with a bit of censorship so they do have a relationship.
In reality I just want to see what the Dexter people could do with a Gothamian setting not even Batman. Imagine GC as a TV show, it almost is already. HBO would be good too (They do “The SHIELD” right?)
