As someone who had too much time on his hands and now can't find enough, Dustin founded TBU as a way to connect with other Bat-Fans and keep them informed. Over the years, he has hosted various podcasts on the site and edited almost everything you read on the site. In 2023, after fifteen years of running TBU, Dustin stepped away from the site.
