Our friend Matt sent these 2 very cool photos showing him at the actual location where one part of THE DARK KNIGHT Batman Movie was filmed in Chicago. Do you remember the now-classic scene in the movie trailer where the Joker is standing in the street & Batman whips the Bat-Pod motorcycle around, then there's a close-up of the Joker ( Heath Ledger ) looking back? Well, this is that street! Ever since seeing that famous scene I knew that this exact location would be a super-famous tourist spot! I mean, it's gonna be like that cross-walk in England where the Beatles shot that Abbey Road cover!! Chicago is a beautiful city & I know that the next time I'm there I am gonna have to get a shot like this, ha ha! Matt, thank you for sharing these pics, they're great, good job! But, could you please send me the address of this street because a million readers are gonna ask, ha ha! Just please leave a comment & they can read it there, thanks again.
Here at the BAT-BLOG we like to think globally & act locally. Did I say that right? Does that make sense? What I mean to say is that we have this blog that reaches the world on a daily basis. We get around 300+ visitors a day, that's about 12,000 a month! We get e-mail from readers who live everywhere: Japan, Texas, California, Argentina, Germany, Kansas, The UK, etc...We love it! But, we live in Oklahoma City, OK. That's the neat thing about the internet. We're all connected. But, I wanted to take a moment to praise a new business in my hometown. The place is ALL-STAR COMICS. They have just opened & I know they want to invite everyone here in Oklahoma to come check them out. The graphic up above covers their address & phone information so if you live in the area please give them a visit. They are open 7 days a week. I know the guy who owns it & he's a nice guy. He runs his business with fairness & honesty...a good place to buy comics for sure. This new store just started but so far it's looking pretty good & they have a great selection of both new & vintage comics. So remember, if you live near Oklahoma City, give ALL-STAR COMICS a try!!
