In this festive episode of Beyond the Bat Signal, Domenic dives deep into the snowy streets of Gotham to uncover why Batman: Arkham Origins isn’t just a great Batman game, it’s the best Christmas game ever made. From the atmospheric snowfall blanketing a crime-ridden city, to the emotional holiday undertones woven into Bruce Wayne’s early crime-fighting journey, this episode explores how Origins captures the spirit of Christmas in a way no other game does.

Domenic breaks down the game’s themes of redemption, hope, and rebirth, the perfect Christmas trifecta. He also highlights the iconic Christmas Eve setting, the hauntingly beautiful soundtrack, the rise of the Dark Knight, and why replaying this game during the holidays hits different.

Whether you’re a longtime fan of the Arkham series or someone looking for a new Christmas tradition, this episode will convince you that Arkham Origins deserves a permanent spot in your holiday lineup.

Bundle up, grab some hot cocoa, and step back into Gotham’s coldest, and most festive, night.

This week, we step out of Gotham’s rooftops and into the nursery for a very special episode. Victoria sits down with Dom to talk about his newest and most important role yet: becoming a dad. Almost six months in, Dom has traded late-night Bat-research sessions for late-night feeds, upgraded his utility belt to include diapers and wipes, and learned that even the Dark Knight answers to a tiny human with a very loud voice.

Join us for a heartfelt, funny, and slightly chaotic conversation about fatherhood, Bat-Dad gadgets, Gotham-style parenting fails, and the origin story of Baby A — the littlest hero in the family. Expect laughs, honest reflections, and a few villain babysitter jokes along the way.
