The Batman Forever Boy Came By (And Took His Poster Home)
Some customers walk in once and leave a nickname behind. Batman Forever Boy is one of them.
He has been coming into the shop for over a year. Every single visit, he asks about Batman memorabilia. Specifically the 1995 Joel Schumacher movie. Not the Tim Burton ones. Not Nolan. Batman Forever. Specifically.
So when an original 1995 Batman Forever movie theater poster came in, we set it aside. He walked in a week later and we handed it to him before he even had the chance to ask.
Why this is the right way
The best version of running a shop is one where customers and staff trust each other enough to hold pieces for specific people. It is older than most retail is willing to operate. It is also the only way to actually serve collectors.
If there is a piece you have been hunting for years, tell us. We can put a note on the file. When a clean one comes through, you get the first DM.
Batman Forever, briefly
The 1995 film is a divisive entry in the Batman canon, but the theatrical poster holds up as one of the best comic-book one-sheets of the 90s. The Val Kilmer era is its own aesthetic. If you grew up with it on VHS, the poster probably does something to your brain that the Nolan posters never will.
Congrats, Batman Forever Boy. You earned it.
