BATMAN

 

…likes the cars,
the cars that go boom.
He’s B-Dubs
And Alfie
And they like the boom.

 

Detective Comics #400, 1970

    Alfred meanwhile is listening to Salsbury Hill.

    And Robin wears the giant clock necklace.

  3. Lou Shumaker says:

    All Alfred wants to do is go boom boom boom and take ya money

  4. ThatNickguy says:

    I don’t get this one.

    But then, it’s probably refering to something related to music, which I know nothing about.

  5. Nina A says:

    I don’t know which is more deoressing-that you used the reference, or that I got it.

  6. Tim C says:

    Oh, God. I just got done repressing my memory of that song.

    Alfredlicious
    wash them dishes
    make them both some cocoa
    He always sewed up Brucie
    now it’s Dick that drives him loco

    A to the L to the F-R-E-D boy, you butler

  9. Christian Otholm says:

    I still think listening to or even thinking about that song is worse than getting Rick Roll’ed.

    For those wanting to take part in the madness:

    L’Trimm’s “Cars with the Boom”

    L’Trimm/Gary Numan/Beatles mashup is awesome, however.

    Just for the record, both Tigra and Bunny are completely deaf now. So be careful out there, ladies.

    The song you’re referencing used to cause me physical pain every time it was on when I was working out a couple years back. Which may be why I stopped working out. Thanks for reminding me of that, Doc!

  13. Dr.Ink! says:

    Ouch!
    Sorry Brad
    B to the A to the N-D-A-G-E boy, you’re hurtin’

  14. Duff Mcwhalen says:

    There’s just gotta be some award out there to give you for this reference.

  15. CJ Awesome says:

    This is the greatest alt-text of all time.

  16. MK says:

    I guess I’m the only person who loves this song. Also, I am now picturing the Batmobile at a stop light dropping and bouncing.

  17. Curse you Sims for referencing a hip hop song older than 1992! I flounder, I flail, like Willie Nelson out on bail.

  18. Christian says:

    i thought it was a Le Tigre song
    ‘We’re Tigre and Bunny and we like the boom’
    I don’t listen to hip hop

  19. Chris Sims says:

    i thought it was a Le Tigre song

    Not Le Tigre, Lady Tigra. Who, with Bunny D, was half of L’Trimm.

  20. Brad Curran says:

    I can’t believe I forgot to mention how great that Neal Adams art looks. That’s from one of the hardcovers of all his Batman, isn’t it?

  21. Tom Foss says:

    Bats likes that boom boom pow;
    Now Dick is jackin’ his style.
    He’s hangin’ out with the bastard
    Who’s got scaled briefs now.

    Here in 2009,
    He’s a sensational find!
    Dick’s got that boom boom boom,
    That Batman boom boom boom.
    Gonna Batdance now.

    This thread has motivated me to finally get around to hunting the Black Eyed Peas for sport, so that’s good*.

    *I am just joking. Don’t have me arrested, Will.I.Am!

  23. Brad Curran says:

    I am sure Will.I.Am reads this blog, by the way. Fergie and all the rest, too.
