Hey, Google: Reader campaigns for Batman-themed Doodle
Noblemania: Google doodle: Bill Finger
More info from writer Marc Tyler Nobleman to honor Bill Finger with a Google Doodle on February 8, 2014.
Here is an excerpt from the letter which Marc wrote to Google in 2012.
"Bill died alone, poor, and unrecognized (no obituary, no funeral). I wrote a book on him to help preserve his culturally significant legacy.
While we are too late for this year's birth and death anniversaries, I think a date that would make an even bigger statement would be July 20—the date The Dark Knight Rises, the next Batman movie, comes out. It would be poignantly appropriate since it was Bill who first called Batman the "Dark Knight" back in Batman #1 in 1940...yet Bill’s name will not be in the film credits..."
