Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. It is also Adam West‘s 83rd birthday.

So please enjoy this video of Pirate Adam West trying to sell you on aftershave; the video blurry, the voice unmistakable. Likewise, the following image of Pirate Batman, from an issue of Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne in which Batman does not appear as a pirate.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
