The name

Into space. Then a hero.

March 15, 2009. A Florida free-tailed bat rode Discovery off Pad 39A and into the climb. John and Dan thought that was an amazing origin for a new superhero. Later they started a podcast from their phone calls and named it SpaceBat. The comic, where he makes it, is a different project. Stay tuned.
