The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #4

Compared to some of the more elaborate setups of throwing Batman and Mystery, Inc. together with various other comic and cartoon characters, The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #4 is pretty straightforward. Based on Batman’s recommendation, Scooby-Doo and the gang head to the beach to investigate ghost sightings not far outside of Gotham in Beach City.

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #3

The first issue of a Batman and Scooby-Doo team-up comic to be produced by a different creative team, The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #3 takes Mystery, Inc. to a creepy closed down hotel in Gotham City tied to the Court of Owls where an old frenemy of Daphne throws a party where no one comes except our meddling kids, Bruce Wayne (who is attempting to get the owners to sell the property), and a Talon who crashes the party.

Scooby-Doo! – Watch Out! The Willawaw!

  • Title: Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! – Watch Out! The Willawaw!
  • wiki: link

Flashback Friday takes us back to Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! for another mystery involving some meddling kids and their talking dog. The first episode of the show’s Third Season, “Watch Out! The Willawaw!” isn’t the strongest episode of the series. Gone is the music montage and the multi-door hallway gag. The creature is also a bit disappointing in a giant glowing owl (complimented by two cohorts in full-sized owl costumes) that lacks the pop of several other mystery monsters the group comes upon. We do get a trap that works as planned, a rarity in the series, except that it traps Shaggy (Casey Kasem) and Scooby-Doo (Don Messick) rather than the villains leading to a twist on the show’s unmasking sequence.

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #2

The second issue of the second volume of The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries is notable for setting up the opportunity for Daphne Blake to stand-in for Batgirl and help the city fight off the latest attack by Poison Ivy who has poisoned nearly everyone in Gotham including Barbara Gordon. Not only does The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #2 offer us Daphne suited up as Batgirl, and an introduction to the Clock Tower, but Barbara working behind-the-scenes offering support as Oracle. Gotta admit, that’s pretty cool.
