When I was in high school a book of Batman stories came out called “The Further Adventures of Batman: 14 All New Adventures of the Caped Crusader”. It was filled with short stories by several different authors, and it was different than anything else I’d read from the Dark Knight’s exploits, because this wasn’t a comic book – there were no pictures, just story after story. Somehow it kept my interest, and I remembered it today from back in 1989 when I read it for the first time – the year it came out. The first story was the one I remembered best, so it’s the one I bring to you tonight… it’s called “Death of the Dream Master” by Robert Sheckley. I’ve linked to the book it’s from below in the sources/references.SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Death of the Dream Master” by Robert Sheckley, from the book “The Further Adventures of Batman: 14 All New Adventures of the Caped Crusader” (edited by Martin H.
