But until now, he's never appeared in a porn film. Then came along this promo picture for Batman XXX: A Porn Parody.
With a 4-to-2 guy-to-girl ratio, one can only shudder at the possible--and indeed, probable--sexual combinations.
Oddly enough, Superman did once appear in a porn film, as featured in the much-maligned (and surely, by now, stricken from continuity) Action Comics #593. But that's neither here nor there.
My point is, there are some things in life that shouldn't be considered fodder for porn films. Like...I dunno...burn victims. And 9/11 heroes. And Batman, damn it! I mean, if you really want to make superhero porn, use Marvel characters. It seems like ever since Bendis took over, they're just constantly fucking each other, anyway.
I will give the producers credit, though. The Batgirl costume looks really well-made. Except for the XXX on her belt buckle. I don't think Batgirl would wear that. Maybe if Ed Benes was drawing her.

Ya know, as a deacon of the Church of Batman, I would normally agree with you. However, if you're going to "pornify" any aspect of the Batman mythos, the '60s series is ripe for the picking. The camp is simply inline with most people's perceptions of porn anyway.
I was a bit taken aback when I first heard of this project, but it really seems like they're paying a lot of attention to detail. If not for the whole porn angle, it might turn out to be a pretty well done homage. I almost hope they release it like Pirates (which was supposedly the most expensive porn film ever made - I've got weird friends...), where they released an R-rated cut because the movie stood pretty well on it's own as a comedy, without the sex scenes.
Oh, the whole Batman and Robin concept--not just the TV show--is totally ripe for the picking. That's why I wish everyone would just agree not to pick at it.
Every time someone does--like in Bratpack, or that issue of The Boys where the Batman, Robin, and Catwoman analogues have a three-way, I get vaguely queasy.
Ha! You're the only other person I know who's read Brat Pack. I definitely thought Veitch took it took far there, but he was trying to shake things up, I guess. That guy hates me, though, due to multiple instances where he accused me of hurting his business. Long story. Anyway, it's still funny to hear someone else mention that book.
