Thank you, Andy!
If you have an interest in psychology and how it relates to pop culture, I highly recommend reading any of the books by @drtravislangley.bsky.social and @rocketllama.bsky.social. There is a book about Batman, The Walking Dead, Supernatural, Spider-Man, among others. My fav is this: a.co/d/5D3zKAw

I am a psychologist, best known for writing the book Batman and Psychology: A Dark and Stormy Knight, along with other popular culture psychology books. My only publications in comics have been prose pieces: an intro, a character analysis, and three letters.

I wanted to ask, are you the Batman author who also writes psychology books? If so, are there any notable comic writings that you've done that I may have heard of in the Batman series?
