WonderCon 2018 Spotlight/Exclusive: An Interview With Batman Ninja Talent

By: MithrandielOne of the most exciting opportunities that I had over the weekend was an invitation to the Batman Ninja roundtable interviews following its world premiere on Saturday, 3/24. After the release of its trailer sparked a viral wave of interest in this unique and engrossing world of Batman set in Feudal Japan, Batman Ninja has generated a lot of hype leading up to this point. While I was unable to make it to the premiere itself, I got the chance to discuss the movie with the leading talent on the film, along with other journalists and professionals. Take a listen to our roundtable session below!
