Yep. Meyer played Barbara Gordon/Oracle/Batgirl (in flashbacks).

Easily the best part of the show, which never quite lived up to its potential.

1983: I went to see MEGAFORCE at the Valley Drive-In just to see the trailer for RETURN OF THE JEDI—and then we left before the actual movie started.

To this day I have never seen MEGAFORCE. 

Heck, as far back as 2016, Trump warned that he would only consider the election legitimate if he won. 

Nice piece--and right on target. 

Exactly. I saw SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE during college, over the holiday break my freshman year. Doesn’t mean I don’t watch today’s superhero shows religiously—or visit io9 everyday. Plenty of us lifelong fans are still engaged with fandom and modern SF, even if modern entertainment journalism often seems to assume that…

Not to make too much of this, but is just me or has io9 picked up a bit of an attitude toward older fans in the last year or so? I can’t cite chapter and verse because, hey, I’m old, but I recall at least one headline that concluded with “Because Old People are Terrible,” along with various other articles that are…

Wanna bet the missing nipple saves the day in the season finale?

While admitting they had a devoted cult following . . . :)

Came looking for DR. PHIBES and THEATER OF BLOOD and was not disappointed. 

Also scripted by Matheson.

Hmm. Starting to think I dropped the ball by not reissuing HELL HOUSE (the novel) in time to snag some confused viewers. :)

And THE INHUMANS.

And dare I mention that there was a novelization of “52" as well?
