RIP - Drew Struzan, legendary movie poster artist and the first to realistically capture a superhero. This 1976 Batman poster was mesmerizing when I first saw it. I reached out and spoke to Drew about it for my book THE BATCAVE COMPANION, unfortunately, in the end, I couldn’t fit it into the book.

Don’t miss Noir Alley today, hosted by Eddie Muller. Today’s movie is the great John Garfield’s final film HE RAN ALL THE WAY. I spoke about this movie and Garfield’s career a few years ago on the Fade Out podcast. After the movie, you can listen to it here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...
